Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Assuming it's the same as the saloons and coupés, the black trim inside the car pulls out, up and off to reveal the bolts that hold the mirror on. If there's any electrics for the mirror (adjustment or heated glass) then you'll need to take the door card off to unplug it. There's torx screws along the underside of the armrest, behind a blank at the door opening handle and behind the airbag badge.

That's how it is on the coupé anyway. I can't imagine it's too different on the others. Bear in mind the door card clips are quite easy to break so you may need a few replacements.

If it's just the glass you mean, just angle it up and to one side as far as it will go and get a few fingers behind it and gently pull it out.
