Removing Rear View Mirror ZRE


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Has anyone tried removing the rear view mirror from its base on the windscreen?

I can't see any screws holding the base in place and it looks like it should slide up, but I can't get it off for some reason.

I was going to swap it with an auto-dimming mirror, but I want to check the base fitting on the windscreen first to confirm suitability.

Just make sure you wake up pxxx-off one morning, get into the car and yank the hell out of it in the upward position towards the head-lining and it comes off LOL :)

The auto-dimming mirror is on its way, so I'll update this thread when I experiment with it a bit.

Will post details after successful completion of this mod. Yes, they're powered and need a 12V source only which am run from the head-lining down through the pillars in the same way the wire for the reverse sensor LED screen has been run. No dramas there at all. The main challenge is getting the dimming mirror windscreen attachment to fit the factory one that is glued to the windscreen.

It is a Genuine Toyota mirror made specifically for the ZRE Corolla.
