Hi

I’ll have bought some new side mirror caps in chrome. But how do I’ll uninstall the existing caps?

Thanks

If they are anything like the Renault Zoe, you have to pull the mirror glass off then release some sprung tabs to pop it off.

My chrome mirror caps just stick on top of mirror housing; look fine & adhesive tenacious.
No dismantling necessary :)
