    I think it’s three bolts to remove the mirror and I had to take the door car off to get to the bottom bolt.
    It may be easier just to pop the cover off the replacement
    You had to take the door trim off to get to the bolt?

      Think there is one bolt you may need to take the door card off, but have a look behind the tweeter (The small triangle speaker). The tweeter just pulls off its clipped in by plastic rivets

        Thanks. Found videos on Youtube. Seems simple enough.

          All done. Needed a narrow trim tool and T20x100mm for the door card. To replace the wing mirror itself I used a T25 and a 3/8" socket. Wing mirror from Mega vaux.

                3 x T20s in the door card 2 behind the big silver handle trim and one behind the small silver handle. Pop the tweeter off and unclip the plug. Pull carefully on the door card. Or make sure you have replacement poppers.

                Pretty simple. I think it's a 7mm for the 3 bolts for the mirror.

                      It's not in English but found the first 2:10 minutes useful in demonstrating how to get the door card off.

                      Needed a narrow trim tool and T20x100mm for the door card. To replace the wing mirror itself I used a combination of T25 and a 3/8" socket.

                        Just remember, when you unclip the handle to remember to put it back as you won't be able to open the door.
