Drivers side Mirror Internals
Drivers side Mirror Internals
So , bloody fence panel was blown over which landed right on my drivers side mirror snapping it at the cast coupler.
The housing and glass etc are unmarked , does anyone know if the internals of a standard a6 mirror would fit , I know the cover and glass and different but the plastic trim on the bottom has the same part number as a normal a6 mirror.
Was wondering if I could just swap the internals over if I find one wit hthe same number of wires ?

Re: Drivers side Mirror Internals
Yeah, I think they are the same. Except some A6 had folding mirrors and/or memory seats so you need to get the right one. What's your part number?
Maybe this will fit:

I don't remember if the RS6 has folding mirrors or not. I'll have to look on mine.

Believe it was either standard or an option.Shoppinit wrote:I don't remember if the RS6 has folding mirrors or not. I'll have to look on mine.
Mine has them, but had quite a few options boxes ticked.
Re: Drivers side Mirror Internals
Huh. I wonder if I have them. I'll check tomorrow.

The part number for non-folding is 4B2 858 532BB.
WIth folding is 4B2 858 532BC.
That's for a RHD, right hand side.

Re: Drivers side Mirror Internals
I’ve had this car for over 15 years and only just discovered that I have folding mirrors.

Re: Drivers side Mirror Internals
Mirror internals arrived from Prestige , swapped over stainless cover , bottom plastic cover and the mirror glass , refitted and all works , so total cost was £18.
