This video shows how to remove and install the side mirror LED turn signal light on a 2015 Volkswagen Golf mk7. This will work on the Jetta mk7 as well.
The part number for the light is 5GM-949-101 (left side)
5GM-949-102 (right side)

Very helpful video. For me, 6:49 is when I would check that the replacement works before re-assembly - especially if it's not a genuine VM part.

For anyone watching. Mirror (glass) doesn’t need to come off. U can access the 2 cover tabs my moving the mirror down all the way. Saves time and possibility to break glass! Great vid:)

@Corysdiyauto 3 ай бұрын

To replace the whole assembly, you'll need to remove the interior door panel and then unbolt the mirror assembly from the inside.

hello buddy, I had a cracked mirror cap but its not the upper cap shown in your video, its the lower cap. The question is can I change the lower cap without removing the outer door panel , because lower cap holds the mirror main neck from its hole.

@Corysdiyauto 2 ай бұрын

Hello there, I believe you have to remove the inner door panel to access the screws that hold the side mirror on. You'll need to take the mirror off of the car and then replace the part that you need. It might be easier to locate a new or used mirror and just replace the whole assembly.

@poormanstrackframe 2 ай бұрын

@@Corysdiyauto thank you👍 I discovered that inside notches of mirror frame also broken as result caps were not holding very tight and my upper cap already have crack, plus just tip of the indicator bar broken from the tip just small area but it looks like absent in the insertion point, in addition I broke the main mirror while I try to seperate frame mirror😔 I tried to avoid buying the whole mirror but now it seems have to buy it because removing the door covers too much hassle for me because of the limited time, also so five different parts I need come nearly cost of complete mirror
