Withdrawal
Vehicles built before 2/92: Pull mirror housing back Loosen hexagon socket head bolt between mirror housing and foot.
On vehicles built before 3/92: Inside the door, carefully press out the small tab in the front triangle of the side window. Loosen the screw underneath.
Mechanical adjustment of the rear-view mirrors: remove the door trim, remove the adjusting button with Bowden cables from the box for built-in door elements.
For everyone: Unscrew the screws on the front of the window frame with the door open, remove the mirror, disconnect the plug if necessary.
Mirror Replacement
Mirror glasses are held in both electrically and mechanically adjustable mirrors only by latches. Withdrawal:
Wear work gloves in case the glass breaks.
Insert a wide spatula or plastic plate from below under the mirror glass and remove it from the latches.
If necessary, repeat the same operation from above.
When installing, insert the glass into the guides and press until it locks into place.
Wearing gloves, press the middle of the glass.
Mirror Drive Adjustment
The drive cables for the mechanical adjustment of the mirrors can be installed in such a way that there is not too much free play on the adjustment wheels. This will require a very small screwdriver.
Remove the knurled wheels of the door mirror adjustment mechanism in an upward direction, if necessary assist with a screwdriver.
For driving direction (up down; right left) There are always two screws located opposite each other. One of them has a left hand thread, the other has a right hand thread.
Adjustment: turn screw A1 carefully to the right until a slight resistance is felt.
Turn screw A2 to the left until a slight resistance is felt.
Repeat the same with bolts B1 and B2.
Check the installation is correct: the mirror is easily adjustable, but the free play remains minimal.
Hints: If the exterior mirror glass shakes while driving, the adjustment mechanism is set too loose - tighten it up.
Too easy adjustment of the mirrors leads to the fact that even slight touches with the sleeve on the wheels with longitudinal knurling change the position of the mirrors. In this case, you should install it a little tighter.
