Not sure its that simple on this swap mate ive heard ya have to do some filing but want to know for sure before i do it, hope it is that simple as then it will be childs play lol i did it a few weeks ago on my mk5b, was a straight swap. took a few minutes. im assuming it would be the same on a mk5 mate
April 25, 201014 yr Yep, simple straight swap over including inner trims. Doorcard off, remove small screw holding the triangle trim then wiggle/pull it free (remember to screw of the small ring around the adjuster). This should reveal the three bolts holding the mirror on (please be careful to hold the mirror as you loosen the last bolts off lol). Then just fit the mk6 mirrors as a reversal.
April 25, 201014 yr Author i stand corrected then cheers guys and peewee i nearly pissed myself reading that but i dont need to hold the mk5 mirrors there going in the bin although dont wanna put any dents on my mint shell lol
