Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the mirror, start by thoroughly cleaning the surface of the broken mirror with an alcohol-based glass cleaner to ensure all debris and oils are removed. Once dry, remove the protective film from the adhesive backing of the new mirror. Align it carefully with the existing housing edges and apply firm, even pressure across the entire surface for at least 30-60 seconds to set the adhesive. Avoid operating the vehicle or moving the mirror adjustment motors for at least 24 hours to allow the bond to cure fully. For maintenance, clean the surface periodically with standard automotive glass cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth to prevent scratching.
