Abstract:
1. A mounting construction for mounting a mirror adjustment instrument to a planar surface of a carrier in an outside mirror unit, comprising a mirror cap surrounding and encasing the carrier, said mirror adjustment instrument being arranged for tilting a reflection surface mounted thereon about a horizontal and vertical axis with regard to the mirror cap, said mirror cap surrounding and encasing the mirror adjustment instrument, said mounting construction comprising first mounting parts on the mirror adjustment instrument for adjusting a reflecting surface mounted on the mirror adjustment instrument and second mounting parts on the planar surface of the carrier surrounded by and encased by the mirror cap, which mounting parts guide the mirror adjustment instrument from a first position to a second position in a direction along the planar surface of the carrier surrounded by and encased by the mirror cap by rotation about an axis transverse to the carrier, the mounting parts cooperating with each other in the second position to fix movement of the mirror adjustment instrument relative to the carrier surrounded by and encased by the mirror cap such that the mirror adjustment instrument is immovable from the carrier in a direction transverse to the planar surface of the carrier surrounded by and encased by the mirror cap, while in the first position the mirror adjustment instrument and the carrier are clear of each other and the mirror adjustment instrument is movable in the direction transverse to the carrier surrounded by the mirror cap.
