vanity mirror
« on: 05 January 2007, 17:47:58 »
right lads on the passenger side ,the visor flap when i open it just seems to fall off! so i have undone the screws that secure it to the roof of the car,just to see if i can repair it,but it is connected inm the top left,by a thin wire,that i presume is the power source for the light.now i just cannot release this connector(?)thats on the visor to take the whole visor off,is there another way round it? all i can see is this wire and this one connector holding it on,any ideas,or  will i be forced to get the tin snips out..... :'(

Sorry I can't help - I don't use the vanity mirror very often so don't know how it works  ;D

I'm constantly checking my 'look' in the mirror.  But this has nothing to do with the solution.

If there's a connector, it can be disconnected!  
Put a piccy up and we'll have a go.  It wouldn't be the first time we'd come across a Krypton Factor connector!

Remember my 2.2 throttle body connector?

The centre courtesy light just pops out - quite tight, and the spring clips are strong...  ...you should be able to see 4 small slots near each corner where you can get a prise (this is also about where it clips), but its easy to damage trim...

I don't remember a connector in there.  But I do remember seeing the loom teeing off in both directions!
