Description
Product Overview
This left side mirror is an electrically operated and folding mirror designed specifically for Citroën C8 and Peugeot 807 models. Positioned on the driver’s side, it allows for convenient adjustment and folding with the vehicle’s electrical controls. The grey EYJ (Grey Aster) painted finish ensures a factory-matched color that complements your vehicle’s aesthetics.
Function and Importance
The mirror provides essential rear and side visibility, enabling safe lane changes and parking maneuvers. Electric folding reduces the risk of damage in tight spaces or when parking, protecting the mirror from accidental impacts. This part is vital for maintaining both safety and convenience during everyday driving.
Common Issues and Replacement
Side mirrors can suffer from electrical faults, motor failure, or physical damage due to collisions. The mirror frame on this unit has a slight crack (as shown in the last photo), which does not impair the mirror’s operation or adjustability. Mirrors typically wear over several years, especially in urban environments, where close quarter parking increases the risk of damage.
Installation Details
Replacing this mirror requires removal of the interior door panel to disconnect the existing mirror’s wiring harness and mounting screws. The new mirror should be fitted carefully to ensure proper electrical connection and secure attachment. Suitable hand tools and basic automotive knowledge are recommended, making this part ideal for professional mechanics and skilled DIY users alike.
