Land Rover Repair: Disco 1 (1998) Left rear view mirror cracked, rear view mirror, mirror glass


Question
Disco 1 how do I remove and replace the left Rear view mirror. (cracked).

Answer
Hello Mike,

If its just the mirror glass you are replacing,  move the mirror glass until it is completly facing inward...that is..the outside edge is fully exposed while the inside edge is fully in.

Carefully insert your fingers behind the mirror glass and gently pull the glass outwards until it is released from the clips.  If your mirror is electrical...you'll have a heater element connector that you will have to disconnect.

Installation is just as simple:  connect the heater element line (if present), line up mirror glass with retaining clips.  Push gently...glass is easily broken.
Make sure mirror is firmly connected by moving mirror completely around its housing.  

Best of luck,

JohnMc
