Description
This left electric folding side mirror is designed for Citroën C5 vehicles from 2001 onwards, including the 2005 model and later. It offers reliable electric control and folding functionality that enhances driver convenience and safety by allowing quick adjustment and protection against damage when the vehicle is parked.
The mirror also features a built-in heating element which effectively prevents fogging and ice buildup, ensuring optimal rear visibility in cold or wet conditions. This part includes the mirror frame and integrated electronics but does not include the mirror glass or exterior cover, which must be purchased separately depending on the vehicle’s color and specifications.
Side mirrors can deteriorate over time due to frequent folding, exposure to weather, or minor impacts. This replacement part provides a cost-effective solution to restore your vehicle’s safety systems and appearance without the need for a full mirror assembly replacement.

Installation Notes
Replacing the left side mirror requires careful removal of the interior door panel to access the mounting screws and electrical connectors. Disconnect the vehicle battery before beginning to prevent electrical short circuits. Remove the old mirror assembly by unscrewing and unplugging it, then install the new mirror frame, connect the electronics, and secure it firmly. Reattach the door panel and test all mirror functions, including electric adjustment, folding, and heating, to ensure proper operation.
Regular inspection and timely replacement of side mirrors preserve driving safety by maintaining optimal visibility and reducing blind spots.
