Thread: trick to replacing side mirror?

You're right. It just snaps into place.

If it doesn't snap back into place the plastic adapter is probably broken but they only cost about $5-10 to replace so not a big deal.

There are a few Youtube videos on how to replace the mirror. It's fairly straightforward.

The clip should should look something like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LAND-ROVE...wAAOSwX6VTyPcA

It's pretty easy for the clips to break on these.

Mirror housing etc is fine - it swivelled and wasn't damaged
Heating connectors saved glass from being smashed as it just dangled
Mirror section looks all ok and I couldn't see any broken clips etc
looks like it snaps in ??
(i don't have my Rave CD nearby- its 300km away)
but I can't see how to make it click in
is there a trick to this ??
