For anyone else struggling with the tricky bit of getting the adjuster mounted into the interior trim hole: there is a third small sloped (as well as bevelled) lug just above the smaller of the other two (around 10 - 11 o'clock position on the adjuster), which I angled into the trim hole first (because it has no corresponding notch in the trim). This seemed to be the key to success. Hope this helps. 🙂
Thank you. Very helpful. Bolt on mine was a 10mm rather than 11mm. You're not wrong about the most difficult bit. Still struggling with it. Any tips? Like #375 (I think!) 👍🙂👍

@@leepharaoh3797 I ended up using super glue to hold it where it needed to be ,otherwise it just wouldn’t stay in place , it did the trick and has held in place , give it a try
I got the same problem tried for bout an hour but it just wouldnt have it i had to cut the cables on the old one to remove it too as the clips where realy on there lol
Thanks for response man. Great video btw. Any chance you know if this will work for a Ford Fiesta style 06 model?? Seen some videos of people pulling the whole inside of the door off, don’t wanna be doing that! Also, could I get away without using those exact tools?
CBHT its the same process for my ford fusion thankfully. i broke the plate that holds the glass in place. it doesnt sit in properly. do you think ill have to replace the entire wing mirror for this? is there anyway to take the wing mirror itself apart to try and fix it?
Steven prebble that's what happend to mine, I just replaced the mirror. a cyclist hits my mirror and snapped one of the mounts. but I'm unsure if you can buy the mounts separate. Just had a look on eBay and all I can find is the full mirror.
***** thanks for checking. I just knocked mine against a trolly bay in Tesco carpark and i think the top mount as disappeared so the mirror sags facing down slightly now. Hoping i can get a cheap replacement. Xmas is already breaking the bank hah. Thanks alot for your help!!
Top instructions great video saved me bags of time
Thanks

Hi, Thanks for such a clear demonstration. My Ford Figo 2015 needs side mirror replacement like this one. Will the procedure be the same as this one?
thanks I need to do this little job , this video will save me a lot of messing

You need a 10mm socket not an 11mm.

I’ve matched the notches on the adjuster but they won’t stay in place once it’s through the housing 😡
I have same problem with mine, did you figure it out?

Can I use this method to change a non-facelift mk6 fiesta door mirror to a new facelift door mirror?
JBetts97 Hey I want to know this too. Did you do this in the end, or did it not work?
Grazie per il video
Does your fiesta have central locking? I have a 2005 54 plate firefly
ItsKushBruh Yes it does, but the boot is separate
how do you take the housing bit off, i can’t seem to take it off
could you be more specific?
Hey man. Where did you get the parts?
Asher Mehmet My uncle got them from his scrap yard

Steven prebble did you break the bit that the glass sticks to or the part that attaches to the adjuster?
