In winter and when air humidity drops, the side mirrors of the rear view freeze, fogging. As a result, visibility is worse. And then heated mirrors comes to the rescue. To independently establish such an option on the car, you will need: heating element (2 pcs.), Hairdryer and (or) hot water, glue and double-sided adhesion, fuse at 10 A, wires 1.5-2 m.
1
Remove the side mirrors of the rear view. Pull the adjustment lever by side mirrors. Then dismantle the decorative triangular lining with a screwdriver. Next step: Unscrew the screws that are under a plastic overlay. After performing all operations, carefully remove the mirror.
2
Remove plastic rim mirrors. To facilitate work, plastic breakage. To do this, use a hairdryer or lower the mirrors in hot water. While the plastic is warm, carefully remove the mirrors. Use the knife to disconnect the plastic housing from the mirror glass. Please note: the mirror and plastic parts are sealant, remove it with acetone. After processing with solvent, wipe the surface with a rat or cloth.
3
At the heating elements, cover the double-sided tape and cut down according to the size of the elements. Skotcha substrate Remove and attach everything to a non-fascinuous back of the mirror. If necessary, remove the protruding parts. Instead of scotch, you can use the "moment" glue. Glue apply a thin layer on the back of the mirror and the element itself. The surfaces glipe tightly to each other, watch the air bubbles remain.
4
Put holes for the terminals of the heating element in the plastic mirror holder. Take into account the size and position of the contacts to exactly cut the opening. Frame for mirrors also clean the solvent. Then dispense the glue around the perimeter of the case and tightly connect it with the mirror. Wait for all parts well bonded. To facilitate access to the conclusions of the heating, solder the wires and isolate everything. After the operations proceeded, you can install the mirror in place.
5
To pave the wiring and connect the mirrors, remove the door cards. Connect the wire with the "-" sign to the metal door, and with the "+" sign, connect to the switch on the toolbar.
6
For the successful operation of the whole design, connect all components in such a sequence: the positive wire from mirrors is not less than 1 m, switch, wire, fuse 10 A, battery, wire, battery. Alternative to the battery - cigarette lighter or ignition lock. Isolate carefully.
Work is quite simple, but painstaking. Therefore, be patient, and everything will turn out.
