Removal
1Using a length of strong thin cord or fishing
line, break the adhesive bond between the
base of the mirror and the glass. Have an
assistant support and remove the mirror as it
is released.
2If the original mirror is to be refitted,
thoroughly clean its base with methylated
spirit and a lint-free cloth. Allow a period of
one minute for the spirit to evaporate. Clean
the windscreen black patch in a similar
manner.
Refitting
3During the installation of the mirror, it is
important that the mirror base, windscreen
black patch and the adhesive patch are not
touched or contaminated in any way,
otherwise poor adhesion will result.
4Prior to fitting the mirror, the vehicle should
have been at an ambient temperature of at
least 20ºC.
5With the contact surfaces thoroughly
cleaned, remove the protective tape from one
side of the adhesive patch, and press it firmly
into contact with the mirror base.
6If fitting the mirror to a new windscreen, the
protective tape must also be removed from
the windscreen black patch.
7Using a hairdryer or a hot air gun, warm themirror base and the adhesive patch for about
30 seconds to a temperature of 50 to 70ºC.
Peel back the protective tape from the other
side of the adhesive patch on the mirror base.
Align the mirror base and the windscreen
patch, and press the mirror firmly into
position. Hold the base of the mirror firmly
against the windscreen for a minimum period
of two minutes, to ensure full adhesion.
8Wait at least thirty minutes before adjusting
the mirror position.
Removal
1Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
(Chapter 5, Section 1), and open the boot lid.
2Where applicable, pull off the trim covering,
and release the wiring on the hinge arm.
3Where fitted, remove the trim from inside
the boot lid.
4Disconnect the wiring at the connectors
visible through the boot lid inner skin aperture.
5Attach a length of strong cord to the end of
the wires in the aperture, to act as an aid to
guiding the wiring through the lid when it is
refitted.
6Release the cable guide rubber grommet,
and withdraw the wiring loom through it. Untie
the cord, and leave it in the boot lid.
7Mark the position of the hinge arms with a
pencil.
8Place rags beneath each corner of the boot
lid, to prevent damage to the paintwork.
9With the help of an assistant, unscrew the
mounting bolts and lift the boot lid from the
car.

10Refitting is a reversal of the removal
procedure. Check that the boot lid is correctly
aligned with the surrounding bodywork, with
an equal clearance around its edge.
Adjustment is made by loosening the hinge
bolts, and moving the boot lid within the
elongated mounting holes. Check that the
lock enters the striker centrally when the boot
lid is closed.
