Description
Product Overview
This heated right mirror glass is a direct replacement for the exterior right-hand mirror of Citroën C5 models produced 2001–2007.

Ideal for professional garages and DIY repairs; frequently searched by part number 8151GP.
Key Features
- Integrated heating element for rapid de-icing and improved visibility in low temperatures.
- Right-hand exterior mirror glass (passenger side in left-hand drive vehicles).
- Designed as a direct-fit replacement to match original factory specifications where heating was fitted.
- Compatible with original electrical connections when the vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors; plug-and-play in most cases.
Fitment & Compatibility
Intended for Citroën C5 (2001–2007). Always verify vehicle fitment using the product code 8151GP and compare with your original part before ordering. If there is any doubt, provide the vehicle VIN to confirm compatibility.
Installation Notes
Typical replacement requires folding the mirror, carefully releasing the old glass from the housing with a plastic trim tool or gentle prying, and disconnecting the heating connector if present. Fit the new glass by reconnecting the heater plug (if applicable), aligning the panel and pressing firmly until clips engage. Wear gloves and eye protection to avoid injury from broken glass. If the original mirror used adhesive pads, replace them with appropriate automotive mirror adhesive.
Common Failure Modes & Maintenance
Mirror glass can fail due to impact (collisions, stone chips), cracking, delamination, or heating element malfunction caused by moisture or connector corrosion. To extend service life, avoid abrasive cleaners, do not aim high-pressure washers directly at the mirror, and check electrical connections for corrosion when heating stops working.
