Starting off
Remove the mirrors from the car, in this case for a Mk2 Punto I followed this guide by flexywozere
Step One (taking off the mirror for Mk2)
You need to take off the little rubber cover that is covering the mirror adjuster. You then need to unscrew the metal ring attached to this.
This rubber cover simply pulls off, lift the base of the cover off the metal ring and then pull it off.
Unscrew the metal ring at the base. There is a little cover in the bottom corner of the attachment which holds a screw, unscrew this. The inside mirror is then held on by two clips so becareful when pulling it off.
Step Two (taking off the mirror for Mk2)
You are now left with the whole attachment hanging on by the mini speaker wiring, just ignore this, it isn't neccessary to unattach this.
As you can see, inside the hole, there is a black ring and if you look closly it has little 'L' shaped holes. You need to unscrew the black ring. This is holding on the wing mirror. What i used is to use a chizzle in the 'L' shaped holes and hammer them round. It unscrews anti-clockwise.
Now you can just pull the mirror out with the metal attachments with it. The rubber sleeve just pulls off.
Carefully remove the mirror glass from the housing, go extremly slowly when doing this, as trying to rush it will result in the glass snaping.
Dont try to take it out without the backing plate or pushing a screwdriver between backing plate and adhesive backing.
Instead, push the mirror to one corner so you can see behind it, use a small light to spot the clips. Use a small screwdriver to unclip these, taking your time on each one. There are 4 in total.
When you get the glass out, store it carefully until mirrors are back on car.
