    Hey! I would have a question. I have the same mirror, the indicator is working properly but the folding system is broken. One little piece of thing broke which is responsible for the folding, it's like a tiny stick which is connecting to the motor. It is the same way to disassamble the mirror?

    • @ohshootvidz
      @ohshootvidz  4 года назад

      Hi Benedek, I don't have folding mirrors on my car but if you want to dissemble the mirror to gain access then this process should help.

  • @mobilesuitmatt
    @mobilesuitmatt 4 года назад

    Is it possible to only replace the bulb within the lens? Or must an entirely new part be installed? The indicator on my car is in good shape, but it is just not lighting up and I am not sure why.

    • @ohshootvidz
      @ohshootvidz  4 года назад

      I don't think so Matthew as these are led's it will be tricky. If you forward to the part where I fit the light unit you can see it is all sealed. You may just have a loose connection. Disassemble and try that first.
