Picked up my Trol yesterday and love it, for an 11yr old truck its condition is amazing and best of all everything works.
The only issue is a broken passenger side door mirror (glass only).
They are heated mirrors and i've a found replacement glass on ebay for £11.99, my problem is how do I remove the old mirror.
I had a look this morning but dont want to force anything just in case I do any damage, can anyone tell me how to remove the old glass please.

usually some plonker over the white lines does the trick, but seriously sorry i dunno.

isnt there a screw under mirror 'arm' which will assist.

Got a tip from the seller on ebay, the mirror sits in a black plastic frame, he says to soften the plastic with hot water pop out the broken mirror and slip in the replacement.:thumbs

The mirror sits in a plastic frame,this is held to the main body by plastic clips accessed by removing the broken glass(carefully) once this is done you will see the clips they need to be depressed to get the frame out, be careful not to break them, fit glass into frame and press home into the body so the clips re-locate.If you have a heated mirror you will have to glue the existing one to the back of the glass. there is a Thai company on E-bay that sell the glass and the heater already attached.Hope this helps.:thumb2

The glass in a troll is the same for a D22 Navara.
