Hi guys,

some dumb*ss just took out my driver-side mirror... good news is that the mechanics and wiring are intact but the mirror and mirror cap are broken

I already ordered the mirror but there's some confusion at my local dealer about the mirror cap:

In my case both the colour-coded top piece and the smaller non colour-coded bottom piece are broken, the non colour-coded piece that is fixed to my door is OK.

Here's a pic to illustrate (I took a photo of a Octavia II because I couldn't find a good one of an Octavia I but you get my drift)

Now my question is: if my dealer orders the mirror cap, will I get the 2 pieces or just the top part?

Thx

Anyone has the Etka diagram of mirror assembly by any chance?

thx

never mind, I got the parts in... the bottom part is indeed a seperate part, just attached with 2 torx screws...

cheers

Just lost my Mirror as well exactly same, except mine has no light and its the other side.

Can you help me by advising how to remove the cover inside with the tweeter in it. Don't want to break anything

Thanks in advance

you don't have to remove the mirror completely unless your mechanics are broken as well

bottom part : just remove the 2 torx screws

remove mirror (is clipped on so just carefully pull)

the mirror cap is screwed on with 2 or 3 screws onto the mechanical moving part

cheers

A while since i did this, but i'm sure it just pulls off. Get your finger nails in and pull gently
