  1. Removal of the outer mirror LH As shown in the figure, push the outer rear-view mirror LH in the forward folding direction. Push the inside of the mirror surface and face the mirror surface towards the interior of the vehicle. Apply protective tape to the location in the figure. Using a molding remover, release the 2 tabs. CAUTION: Be careful not to pull the outer mirror LH with excessive force, as this may disconnect the actuator mechanism or crack the mirror. When there is no mirror heater: Release the 2 tabs and remove the outer mirror LH. With a mirror heater: Release the 2 tabs. Disconnect the 2 connectors and remove the outer mirror LH.

Note. The following procedure is for LH side. Perform the same procedures for the RH and LH side.
