how to take the side mirror cover off

[porsche356]

Hi,

A change in my life!!

I am asking before I am touching, so that (hopefully) means that I do not have to replace the cover.

How do I take off the side mirror cover? I have found one screw, but I do not want to put too much pressure on it.

How should it be done?

Regards, frank

Hi Frank -- I recall Loren posting the instructions on how to do this and a few people commenting -- I forget the exact details but if you search the forum you'll find it.

Good luck and be sure to let us know how it goes.

Hi Odix,

Thanks a lot for your help.

This post is actually about accessing the rear of th mirror (glass side). I was referring the the cover in front of the mirror. Is it possible to remove this as wel?

Regards, frank.

Hi Frank -- the entire mirror does come off. The info/instructions are here somewhere...

When the mirrors are closed (pulled-in close to the vehicle) I think you can see more of how to disassemble. Some other folks who know a lot more about this may have time to comment later.
