    Thanks for taking the time do this-just did mine today and you have saved me a load of hassle and cost. Took me about 30-40 minutes, only because of your very helpful video!

    Thanks for the concise instructions on how to do this. Saved a packet ordering my own mirror and doing it myself instead of having the main dealer supply and fit a replacement. Took about 45 minutes to do this and most of that time was spent trying to find the correct Torx driver in my completely disorganised collection of tools. :D Lesson learned: Tidy up the shed more often!

    Great video Geoff. Just what I was looking for. I had a clown drift over and do the same to me. You're right about the bang. The guy got so close I actually shut my eyes.

    I've just had to do this on my '09 Mondeo. But be warned, my replacement mirror came with a captive bolt rather than captive nut to hold the mirror to the door. I needed a 8mm nut to fix it in place. And whilst getting the tweeter and door panel off is quite easy, putting it back together is MUCH more difficult!

      In Southampton there is a lot of this type of crime, and the police don’t seem to do anything.

    You don't have to remove the whole panel. You can remove the speaker housing and just the Two panel screws on the hinge side. Tiny bit more tricky reconnecting the power lead but not that difficult.
