I've read lots of write-ups on how to swap mirror covers for the 08-09 w204. "My way" literally took me less then 20min both sides including taking pictures. Note: This way will not let you hook up the puddle lights, which as you know from the other write-ups, requires the removal of the mirrors from the doors in order to feed the wires through. I may or may not install the puddle lights down the road so for now, this way is the fastest way to enjoy the face-lift mirrors.

I bought the Carbon fibre covers from 55tech. SUPER FAST shipping and great customer service



1. Push mirror back and pry the mirror off using both hands. You'll need a little force to pop the mirror off it's mounting bracket.


Unplug wires for heated and auto-dim (if equipped)


2. Unscrew t-10 screws to remove face plate cover.



3. Remove top casing by gently prying up and out. Disconnect plug for LED signals.


4. Pop tabs on lower casing and gently pull downwards to remove from base.



5. Your done the disassembly, now reassemble in reverse order.




And your done......... Enjoy!

Wow. Well that's a much easier way o_o. Saves tearing opening the panels on the inside and stuff.
