Refitting of the new ones is reversal of the removal.

10 minute job per side
Thats a no go for me, as I have a small passengerside mirror. I'll ask A8 parts if they can supply some trim clips as I am putting a big order with them soon(recaro leathers front and rear seats + fl armrests and a chrome gear selector... price already cleared... they just need the donor car as I need it from a LHD )
