9N3 Mirror Covers

[Karson3270]

Anybody know how to take these off as I am scared I will crack them or something. As they only seem to be thin plastic? :S

Thanks guys

they are a pain in the arse to get off if anything like the 9n ones. u need to make sure all the clips are off, which are behind the motor cup for the mirror adjustment. takes a lot of swearing but they do eventually come off

I'm having a mechanic do mine lol!

All those things I ordered get fitted tomorrow

It's the cowards way out. . .but it's an option for you

Well do me a huge favour? Watch how he takes the mirror covers off please And report the news on here

I will do if I'm allowed to stay but they will tell me to leave the car and to p*** off out of the work shop

when i took mine off gave a little pull on the lower bit by the mirror the they sort of fell of but i did have 1 broken clip still fine tho

[Karson3270]

Exactly I don't trust myself. I may snap everything.

If anybody could post a simple guide on what to do it will be appreciated

Hey Karson.

Rummaged around and found this. .

It's for a golf but looks quite similar to the Polo mirror?

[Karson3270]

Yeah I see that too, the thing is I can't be certain it will be the same. It looks it, but can't be too sure. Clips may be at completely different places and I may snap them!

haynes says 2 clips

I've got a 57 reg polo & took my mirror cover off recently to inspect the indicator bulb as it wasnt working, & even though i havent done it before it came off quite easily as i used a couple of thin flat bladed screw drivers & worked the cover off gently. Its just held on by quite a few moulded hooks/clips
