Hi, Can anyone help me understand how to pull a side mirror apart so I can change a broken mirror? Thx. 2006 Black/Alpaca, Hi Ice, Dynamic Pack, 19" wheels, Clear Pack...

It's best you get a dealer to do it - many of us have broken mirrors ourselves doing it! In fact the last time the dealer did it they also broke the mirror - let them make the mistake!

If you try and break it, you'll be up to buy a new one.... If the dealer breaks it, they will get a new one without charging... Range Rover Vogue ‘17 TDV6

Thanks, I get the sentiment, but, since I have 2 hands and a brain I think I can do it. All I need is a staring point. 2006 Black/Alpaca, Hi Ice, Dynamic Pack, 19" wheels, Clear Pack...

MY59 wife solved the problem by taking the job lot off clean down to the door pillar, dont know how she managed it without marking the paintwork. Mirror a right cow to change on its own, needs a lot of force on the glass to clip it in, beware purple people eater
