Replacement Guide
Typical replacement procedure: carefully adjust or remove the mirror glass to access the retaining clips or screws, use a plastic trim tool to pry off the old cover to avoid damaging the mirror housing, align the new cover and press firmly until all clips engage. On some C5 variants the motor or mirror glass must be detached first; always consult the vehicle repair manual for model-specific instructions and take care to protect painted surfaces during the job.
Common Issues And Longevity
Mirror covers normally fail due to external impacts (parking knocks, curb hits), deep scratches, or paint degradation from UV exposure and road salts. They contain no mechanical components, so functional failure is uncommon; replacement frequency depends mainly on exposure to collisions and environmental wear.
