I've been trying to remove the old passenger side mirror to replace it with a new one l bought on eBay (some kid actually ran into the mirror and totalled it).

I've seen this old thread,

So far l have the cover off, and the large plastic nut is exposed. How do l get it off? Is there some kind of special spanner required? I've tried easing back the one way winders using a needle nosed pliers as suggested above, but trying to turn the nut still does nothing.

Any help would be hugely appreciated!!!!

l have no experience of ur car but if ur talking about the large plastic screw with the operating arm inside. With a pair of gasmans pliers & an old rag or towel, wrap rag around the screw & unscrew with pliers.

There may be eithe phllips screws or allen key screws to be undone, after this it should come off.

Tip, look at one to go on, u will see where sccrews go, also while unscrewing screws it would be a good idea to open the window & hold mirror or get a helper.

Refitting is the opposite of removing, but will be easier.

Ps this is fo a manual mirror which its most likely to be, however some top of range vehicles have an electric drivers door mirror as well as passengers side. If its electrical then u will have to remove door card & search for mirrors connection & disconnect it feeding it through any holes etc.
