Electric folding wing mirrors

  •

Does anyone know if there's a writeup available on fitting the a set of S3 J Spec heating and electric folding wing mirrors to a s1 UK??

 

If not, does anyone care to share their knowledge if they know? Just bought a pair off Slick Pete.

 

Also, the jspecs are black - am I able to swtich the casing over to save on repainting them or is painting the only option? Just want to make sure before I try and lever the case open and end up breaking it!!

 

Cheers

    Hi Vig, you can change the innards into your red casing, the wires for the heated mirror part need to be wired to the rear window defrost switch, which can be done at the relay in the drivers footwell behind the kick panel.

    Heres a write up on the US site for the folding mirror conversion

    That's brilliant Graham, thanks for that!

     

    Haven't read it yet (at work) but do you know if it mentions how to wire up the folding mirrors? Was thinking of wiring into the locking system but then realised my doors lock automatically after about 10secs driving so don't want the mirrors folding in just as I set off! lol...:no:

    It has the write up with how to wire for the folding mirrors, but from the switch.

    You will need a relay, possibly two, depending on the alarm system, to wire so the mirrors fold with central locking. You can take a feed from the drivers door solenoid for this.

     

    Its one of the mods im going to do on mine and when ive got the door card off and got round to doing it, i will do a write up.
