Description
Overview
This left side mirror is designed for the Citroën C5, compatible with models from 2001 and 2005 onwards. It is the driver side mirror, featuring full electric adjustment and folding capabilities, as well as an integrated heating function to ensure clear visibility in cold or foggy conditions.
The outer shell is painted in Fulminator Grey (paint code EYP), matching the original vehicle finish. Although the paint shows minor scratches, the mirror is fully operational and ready for installation.
Function and Fitment
The electric folding function helps protect the mirror from damage in tight parking spaces or narrow streets. The heating feature prevents icing and fog build-up, enhancing safety during adverse weather. This mirror easily replaces the original part without any modifications.
Typical reasons for replacement include damage from impacts, electrical faults in adjustment or folding motors, or wear on the heating element. Replacing this component restores proper functionality and maintains the vehicle’s aesthetic appearance.
Replacement Instructions
To replace the side mirror, remove the interior door panel on the driver’s side to access the mounting screws and electrical connector. Disconnect the wiring harness, remove the damaged mirror, and install the new one by reversing these steps. Ensure all electrical functions are tested before completing the reassembly.
