Wing mirror removal refitting


Scooter

Recommended Posts

After the door card removal, is this a simple x2 bolts and one electrical clip to undo?

 

Basically can anyone tell me in advance if its a relatively simple procedure................

 

Yes,

 

Ensure window is down.

 

Remove door card - Just screws - be aware of the one hidden by the handle. Then disconnect the multiplug

 

Remove grey plastic speaker base unit - Plastic box recessed into the door - Just screws again.

 

Unpeel the plastic sheeting that was behind this unit and you can then look inside the door and see the two nuts holding the mirrors in place. It just needs a small socket set with deep sockets (10mm IIRC) to get them undone and you can pull the mirror up and disconnect the loom.

 

Job Done! :)

Quite simple as above. You may not need deep sockets. The Nuts for the mirrors are within two holes on the door.

 

Becareful as the door cut outs can be sharp when you get your hands in.

 

Be prepared for a little rust around the mirror mount area on the door. You may not have any, if you do then treat with something suitable

just posting to say it was an easy swap..........

 

only danger was dropping the two nuts down into the door innards, which thankfully i avoided.............even the electrical clip (i really struggle with some of these elsewhere) was a doddle to undo.........
