Hey all 8-)

Looking for a passenger side folding mirror for a 5th gen in working order. Any colour, as i have a shell i can swap with :D

Alternatively, looking for a damaged mirror, as long as it clicks when the button is pressed, as it is the motor and not the mechanism that i (think) i need. I am also fairly confident i can repair it if it is clicking :? Condition of glass/shell not important.

Failing that, the same as above but for a 4G, as i can scrounge the motor off of one of those as my research tells me the motor fits.

Get in touch friends :D

Hey macky, The passengers mirror on project x doesn't fold automatically but does if you give it a nudge, not sure if it clicks but I can test it before the engine is pulled out at the weekend and let you know.

Tried that one out tonight for you.
You can hear the motor turn when you press the button but nothing happens or it moves very slightly so I think the gears are broken inside.

It would be a shame to wreck a perfectly good folding mirror just to scrounge the motor :!:

How much do you want for it Dave? @JDM-BB4

:D
