How to Change complete driver mirror Renault scenic 3 RENAULT GRAND SCÉNIC III (JZ0/1_)

To change the complete driver side mirror on a Renault Scenic 3, here’s a general step-by-step guide based on typical procedures and available tutorials:

1. Prepare:
- Ensure the car is off and the mirror is in a convenient position for removal.
- Disconnect the battery to avoid electrical shorts if the mirror has electrical components like heating, indicators, or motorized adjustments.

2. Remove the interior door trim around the mirror:
- Pry off the small triangle plastic cover on the inside of the door near the mirror to expose the mounting bolts or screws.
- Remove any screws securing the door trim or panel to gain better access if necessary.

3. Disconnect the electrical connector:
- Unplug the wiring harness connected to the mirror for electrics and heating.

4. Unscrew the mirror mounting bolts:
- Usually 3 nuts or bolts hold the mirror in place inside the door frame.
- Use the appropriate tool (often a Torx or socket wrench) to remove these.

5. Remove the old mirror:
- Carefully pull the mirror away from the door, avoiding damage to paint or wiring.

6. Fit the new mirror:
- Position the new mirror into place.
- Tighten the mounting bolts securely.
- Reconnect the wiring harness.

7. Reassemble:
- Replace the interior trim pieces and secure any screws removed.
- Reconnect the battery.
- Test the mirror functions (adjustment, heating, and indicators if applicable).

Videos and manuals show this procedure in detail and can be very helpful if you want to see the parts and tools live in action.
