#1: Can wing mirror covers be replaced? Author: SixFeet, Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2014 2:40 am ---- Hi.
Over night some little dear has smashed my wing mirror and local scrappy doesn't have it in my colour Sapphire Blue/KNY. Wondering if I could take the cover off mine and swap it with the one from the scrappy? If so are there latches etc holding it on or is it just a case of getting a flat headed screwdriver and prising it off gently and gluing it to the new one?
It's for a T reg and a manual wing mirror if that matters.
Regards.

Thank you for the speedy reply. It's not attached by latches or anything then, just bonded on and it's a case of being gentle?

Do I need to apply pressure to these then to get it off rather than just prise it off? Surely I'll need to keep these unbroken to fix the one I take off back on?
