Right Electric Folding Side Mirror Citroën C5 EXLD 8149WH

Description

Product Overview

This right side electric folding mirror is designed specifically for the Citroën C5, compatible with models from 2005 and earlier. It provides reliable functionality including electric adjustment and folding features, perfect for both professional mechanics and DIY car enthusiasts looking for a high-quality replacement part.

The mirror includes a built-in heating element to prevent fogging and ice buildup, combined with a temperature sensor that helps regulate the heating operation efficiently. The housing comes in a sleek black obsidian paint finish (EXLD), matching the original vehicle aesthetics. Please note the paint has minor surface scratches, which do not affect mirror functionality.

Function and Common Issues

The electric folding function allows the mirror to fold inward electrically, protecting it from damage when parked in tight spaces. The heating feature is essential in colder climates, providing clear rear visibility. Typical failures include motor wear or wiring faults, often caused by moisture ingress or impact damage. Regular inspection and gentle handling can extend the lifespan of the mirror assembly.

Replacement and Installation

Replacing this side mirror on the Citroën C5 involves removing the door panel to access the mirror mounting points and electrical connectors. Disconnect the wiring harness carefully before detaching the old mirror assembly. Mount the new mirror securely, reconnect the wiring, and test all functions including folding, adjusting, and heating before reassembling the door panel.
