Hi All,

Im wanting to change my wingmirrors, I already have my new ones. Im presuming that i have to remove the door cards to access the screws holding the wing mirrors on?

Do I just have to remove the handles, window handles etc on the inside to remove the door cards? I presume if i take the window winder off, then it just simply screws back on?

Cheers, Tom.

hi tom
nope if your removing standard wing mirrors then all you need to do is remove the small access panal in the mirror base from outside the car which is visible if you look under the mirror and behind the pannel there are 2 bolts or screws that you remove. so no need to remove any interior trim or eaven go into the car.

Cheers, Tom.

Im sat in the mini now! Ive had a look at the wingmirrors, and all i can see it a small flat head screw on the froint (Can see it if sat in the car) and thats all. It looks as though it sits on a seperate base?

Maybe these arent oringinal?
