5. Configurare (Instalare)

Professional installation is highly recommended. Follow these steps for proper installation:

1. Scoateți panoul ușii: Carefully remove your vehicle's door panel. This typically involves removing two screws located in the door handle area and then prying off the panel, which is held by clips around its edges. If your vehicle has a manual window crank, you will need to remove it first, which usually involves prying off a retaining clip.
2. Remove Old Mirror: Once the door panel is off, access the bolts holding the old mirror. Use a 10mm socket wrench to remove these bolts.
3. Install New Mirror:
   • Insert the un-mounted bolt into the mounting base on the top corner of the new mirror. Tighten it with a monkey wrench. IMPORTANT: Do not over-tighten to avoid damaging the thread.
   • Tighten the two nuts on the bottom of the mounting base first.
   • Insert the correct-side support bracket (LH or RH) into the upper long bolt as shown and tighten the nut. The bracket is designed to minimize mirror vibration. You may notice the bracket bends inward slightly; this is normal and helps hold the mirror firmly against the door structure.
4. Conectați cablarea (dacă este cazul): If your vehicle has power mirror functions, connect the wiring harness. Ensure all connections are secure.
5. Reinstall Door Panel: Replace the door panels, plastic moldings, and trim pieces to finish the installation.
