Technical specifications and fitment

The presented mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and has been designed specifically for BMW 1 Series E81, E82, and E88 bodies with the M Sport package. The design is intended for installation on the right side of the vehicle, which guarantees compatibility with factory mounting points and the correct field of view geometry for the driver.

The housing in Alpine White – 300 allows for an aesthetic match to bodywork painted in the same shade, reducing the need for additional paint work. The applied Shadow Line / High Gloss / Glanzschwarz finish on the decorative elements of the mirror emphasizes the sporty character of the M Sport version and blends well with factory trim and other styling accents.

Heating and functional utility

A key feature of this mirror is the integrated heating function, which helps maintain a clear mirror surface in conditions of rain, snow, or frost. The heating system works with the BMW electrical installation, allowing for proper control from factory switches without the need for wiring modifications.

The original OEM construction ensures appropriate body rigidity, positioning stability, and correct operation of the glass adjustment mechanism (in accordance with vehicle equipment). As a result, the mirror maintains proper safety and ergonomic parameters, which is especially important when driving at higher speeds.

Original origin and replacement numbers

The mirror comes from the BMW OE parts line, which means it was manufactured according to the vehicle manufacturer's quality standards. The item has a dedicated OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific equipment version and vehicle year. The presence of these numbers allows the mirror to be matched to the factory body configuration, avoiding problems with installation or differences in finish.

As a used part, the mirror is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the original BMW specification, which is particularly important for post-accident repairs or restoring the car to a condition consistent with factory documentation.

Purpose, installation, and application

The right M Sport mirror in Alpine White is intended for direct installation in the appropriate versions of the BMW E81, E82, and E88. Thanks to factory mounting points and compatibility with the original electrical installation, the replacement process can be carried out in an orderly manner, without the need for adapting mounting elements or modifying wiring harnesses.

The product is suitable both for a standard replacement of a damaged mirror and for upgrading the body to M Sport specifications, where maintaining stylistic consistency (Alpine White paint, Shadow Line / High Gloss / Glanzschwarz finish) and full heating functionality is essential.
