Zafira Wing Mirror

[Neil McGrath]

Just woke up to find somebody has smashed the housing and the mirror glass on my zafira drivers side.

The back is colour coded black but it seams to be ok.
I have been looking on E Bay and it looks like I can pick one up for 60 pounds.

Can anybody tell me first how do I get the mirror off it looks like their are a couple of grommets hiding screws but the bottom one is tight against the door panel. Hope I don't have to take the door panel of.

Secondly how do I take the housing of the back of the mirror because all the mirrors for sale on E Bay come primed.

Ps the mirror is electric if that makes any difference. As you can see from my description I am a novice DIY so any help would be gladly appreciated.

Cheers
Neil

you are correct about the grommets and yes you do have to take off the door panel to unplug the wiring! also Vauxhall sell these mirrors in seperate pieces so if you do not need a complete mirror then genuine parts might be cheaper, got to be worth a visit to your dealer. The painted cover is cliped on and if you remove the glass you should be able to see how to remove the cover.

Hope this helps
