Methods for replacing the Changan Oshan rearview mirror assembly: 1. Remove the mirror by unscrewing the screws located at the edge and bottom; 2. Disassemble the middle component to complete the removal of the rearview mirror, then install the new component and mirror. The rearview mirror is a tool that allows the driver to directly obtain external information about the rear, side, and lower parts of the car while seated in the driver's seat. Changan Oshan is a new passenger car brand under the Changan Automobile Group, leveraging the group's global R&D, supplier system, and manufacturing system to provide high-quality driving and riding experiences for Chinese 'big families'.
I remember when my Changan Oushan's side mirror got damaged, I had to replace it myself. That time I spent some time preparing tools, found a Phillips screwdriver and a small wrench. First, I unscrewed the several screws on the door trim panel, carefully pried open the panel to expose the wiring inside, making sure to remember the positions to avoid confusion. Then, I disconnected the electrical connector, which had a clip that needed a gentle press. The old mirror was fixed to the door frame with a few screws, which came off easily once removed. When installing the new assembly, I aligned the holes, tightened the screws, and reconnected the electrical connector, then tested the turn signal and power adjustment functions to ensure they worked. I bought a matching model on Taobao, and I recommend choosing one with heating function for convenience. The whole process took about half an hour. If the wiring seemed complicated, I checked the manual to avoid forcing anything and prevent short circuits. After finishing, I adjusted the angle properly to ensure a wide field of view for safer driving.
