The cable gets caught on the window when I roll it down, is there a way to make sure the cable stays in place and to the side to stop this from happening?
@@calebjrh its a bit strange because there is a compartment where the cable goes through, but if it interfering am sure you can use some cable ties to secure it to one side...
Most likely the link hook that attaches to the inside of the door handle is becoming detached so most likely you need to make sure it’s hooked on and in the correct place.
Hi I hope someone can help me I’m trying to fit a new mirror to my car managed to pull the cable through and the indicator was working. Only thing is when I’d wind my window down it was getting caught on the wire. I cannot feed the wire through the door panel without getting caught on the window
Perfect I just ordered my one for my 2010 s3 , just wanted a good idea what am up against looks fairly straightforward
Yes fairly straight forwards, all the best.

@@DaringBeefcake that’s exactly what I did the other day, got it all fixed now, thank you :)
@@calebjrh Perfect well done, sorry for the late reply, but some times i miss messages..
How do you unscrew the mirror from the outside? Is it only that one screw from the inside holding it or ?
As far as I remember it’s just one screen, but will be a bit stuck and you need to pull it out to unstuck it everything I did is on the video..
Hello, could you please tell me the precise tools used for this?
Thank you
A set of torx screwdrivers and perhaps a set of plastic praying tool.
Hi mate I followed your steps but not sure i got the wing mirror in fine but now my door won’t open from the inside ?

but it has a specific hole for feeding the wire through, so am not sure how is it getting caught, have you seen the video ?
I had the exact same issue!!! Did you resolve it?
