OEM Carbon Fibre Wing Mirrors

Post by gsc » Mon Jan 21, 2019 9:43 am

For those with factory installed carbon caps, do you still have heated glass facility? I suspect mine are on the blink because this morning with it being fairly icy I distinctly noticed they do not clear at all, even with front and rear screen demisters on.

As above, they don’t work with demisters. Drivers’s mirror switch has to be in automatic heating position (5 o’clock from memory).

Fault fixed, loose fuse of all things, not sure how that happened as I’ve been nowhere near the fuse box since I bought it!
