Right mirror light in skoda rapid 2016

Featured Replies

I have skoda rapid 2016  while driving the right mirror just touched wall softly after that the blinking light on mirror did not work and it's not broke I wonder how I can remove mirror cover and reach light

Hi doom 

you should be able to pop the glass out possibly with a screwdriver pushed behind but be carfull not to brake the glass ! But I'm not sure if getting behind the mirror will help !

good luck

There's a guide on Youtube on how to completely dismantle the wing mirror housing to get at the indicator. It's for a Mk6 golf I think but they're more or less the same.

 

If you start by tilting the mirror all the way down you can get your fingers in behind the glass and pop it out. Once it's out you need to disconnect the two wires for the heated element then there are various clips and I believe it's a torx bit to get the indicator part of it off.

 

I had tried using trim removal tools but getting the fingers in behind the glass was the easiest method and spreads the pressure so that you minimise the chances of breaking the glass.

As per the service manual, the mirror glass is removed inserting a wide plastic wedge from the top and using it as a lever to push the glass out. Like others pointed out, you can swivel the mirror all the way down beforehand to assist this.

After removing the glass, the housing can slide out by pushing and unclipping three clips which are behind it.

There are more clips under the housing to remove the frame.
