Do you have video of how you removed the mirror? I have a 2006 sl55 and need to replace the passenger side turn signal housing. I dont want to break anything pulling the mirror out. Thanks.
The parts you showed seemed easy enough, but you didnt show how you got the mirror glass off. Did it just pull out or are there clips that need to be depressed? Most of the other models I saw show clips of some kind. I dont want to break it off. Cant find any videos on someone actually pulling off the mirror on a SL.
I've just done mine (see above) and it is slighly different ('06 model, SL 350 europe). The mirror does not have the two long clips shown in video. Rather, it has four small clips that go into the motor. Just pop them one at a time, gently, with a screwdriver or pry tool. Then pull out the whole mirror at the same time, applying the same pressure each side to avoid bending the clips.
I guess the mirror simply pops out when apply gentle pressure.. if I see it correctly, the latches are in the lower-half of the mirror, so put it all the way up using the motor and try to pull it in that position
welcome. this video will be very helpful, as I have to replace the right mirror housing and indicator in my R230 (stupid me forgot to fold mirrors when coming out of the garage lol)
Very simple process. Video made it even more simple to do.
Awesome color combo on your car! I have the silver with the red interior... red is the way to go!
Excellent video! I have the same 05 SL500 (Mars Red with cream interior) but chromed out (wheels, light trim, etc.) Love my SL!!!

I don't, sorry. I no longer own this beautiful machine. Try doing what I show in the video in reverse. Good luck.
