Door Mirror

Can anyone out there tell me how to adjust the door mirrors on the Griff. My drivers side mirror looks to have been knocked and I don't want to force it back up. Thanks Gator

...ohh no not that job, unlucky..... ..vets are probably very handy to have as a friend for this job as it involves inserting your arm pretty much all the way in through the tiny speaker hole with only enough room to wiggle the fingers about and stab them on bits of fibre-glass.. ...the mirror comes in 4 parts, threaded insert mirror body plastic cover allen-screw.... ..the insert screws into the top of the door from the inside(through the speaker hole).. ..the mirror body screws into the insert from outside... ..the allen-screw screws into the mirror body stem.... ..the plastic cover makes every thing look nice... ..if your mirrors loose you might want to try to nip up the allen-screw that might help...to do this you have to lift up the plastic cover that sits in the recess of the door at the base of the mirror, under this you'll find the allen-screw screw hole, its a real tricky job not to damage anything as the allen-screw seems higher than you can lift up the plastic cover, but it does go..try and nip up the allen-screw and see if that helps.. ..if its still loose give us another shout....

If you do need to remove the whole mirror etc then I added a detailed line to the Chimaera group a few months back.
