    Its a European car - theres about 100 bolts for the mirror.

    Are you just replacing the actual mirror (glass) or the entire housing? If its just the glass then the glass pops off and there 2x cables going to the back of it (heated mirrors) that you need to unplug.

    If its the whole assembly then your in for a treat.

        To gain access to the mirror, you need to remove the door card first. Parts of this DIY from golf.net my help.
