As Shilen has posted and pointed out to me that they are bigger I haven't seen the old along side the new to compare but the glass area is almost square now, they seemed to have made the glass area higher and lower possibley as the width is still the same and the visor on the top is not so curved now making the fitting of Trailer Mirrors much easier, no need the bend the Aeros now. The main change regarding the covers is the later ones the covers do not fit on the housing as a cap, you need to pry off the old cover using a suitable screwdriver starting where the mirror housing hinges, there was an ebay link to a third party selling them (Thanks to Mcphersonstrut ) with a video on how to remove the old and replace with the new but they have none listed at the moment. EDIT: Found it http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Landrover-Freelander...5d2cc80334 |

Not just the newer ones but more expensive ones. New less expensive ones like mine use the older design.

White spirit sounds good - not sure about nail polish remover - sounds a bit agressive??
