Title: Genuine Mk5 Golf Heated Glass Mirror Part Numbers?
Post by: R32 mad on February 21, 2013, 02:06:08 pm

Does anyone know what the part number is for a replacement genuine mk5 golf heated glass mirror for left and right side wing mirrors?

Also how much would you be looking at?

Does your driver mirror have auto dimming?

No its just the standard heated mirror. I assume you can not simply install a auto dimming one and expect it to work, If it wasn't ordered from factory when the car was built?

if it's anything like the A3 it just needs a wire running down from the interior mirror. i don't believe that it is technically difficult, but getting the trims off to feed the wire is meant to be a bit of a pig, and the glass is stupidly expensive on the A3 (like £180 a side or so)
