Guide to Install Mugen CF Rearview Mirror Cover/Removing Rearview Mirror

[sherryjenix]

DIdn't see one here when I did a forum search, so just in case anyone needed it:

Mugen CF Rear View Mirrow Cover:

1. Remove the long panel (circled in red) first. This will allow you to pull off the rest of the housing:

Before:

After:​

2. This should expose the torx screw that's holding the mirror in place. Remove the screw behind the mirror (circled in red), and you should be able to slide the mirror right off:

3. Remove the film from the double sided tape on the Mugen cover, and then slide it right onto the OEM mirror.

4. Slide the mirror back onto the mount. Screw/tighten the torx screw. Put the plastic housing back on, and you're done. Enjoy your Mugen cover!

Very easy to follow and it looks amazing. Where did you purchase it?

In addition to this great write-up:

It is a T20 torx bit, if you don't have one (like myself), you can use a 7/64" Allen wrench. It will perfectly fit into the star pattern.

17-19 models only need to remove the one torx screw, which saves a few minutes.

Hello!

I purchased it from one of the guys in Vegas who was selling on Facebook, but they’re available on King Motorsports and Art of Attack as well!

What's the panel around the mirror for? Don't have that on mine.

Great guide for the 2020 type R with Honda sensing..17-19 is only one hex screw to remove the mirror.

It holds a sensor for Honda Sensing. I didn't realize the 17-19 models didn't have the housing haha.

I’m trying to get the sensing panel off for this, but I’m running into a bit of an issue. I got the small panel covering the mirror arm off, but I can’t seem to budge the rest of the housing. Is there a trick to it? I don’t want to break anything on my brand new car, so I’m afraid to apply too much force.

For anyone who's doing this in the future the clips are very sturdy. I applied more force than I thought I should and it was fine.

Anyone know where to pick one of these up (or have one for sale)?

Only seeing the version with the cutout on the bottom available online which is a different product #.
