Mirror Purpose and Functions

The exterior mirror presented is dedicated to BMW E81/E82 cars in the M Sport package and is mounted on the right side of the vehicle. The integrated electric drive allows for convenient mirror folding from the car's interior, which facilitates parking in tight spaces and reduces the risk of damage. The auto-dip function aids in reversing maneuvers by automatically adjusting the mirror's position when reversing (with appropriate vehicle configuration).

Color and Stylistic Matching

The Black Sapphire Metallic 475 paint shade ensures consistency with BMW's factory color palette. This allows the mirror to harmoniously blend with the body line, maintaining the distinctive, sporty look of the M Sport version. The metallic paint finish complements the body's contours, emphasizing the vehicle's dynamic silhouette.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Mirror

An original BMW exterior mirror with power fold and auto-dip function is a solution that preserves the vehicle's factory functionality without the need for electrical system adaptation or wiring harness modifications. The OEM construction promotes:

• correct fit with doors and seals,
• stable operation of the adjustment and folding mechanism,
• maintenance of proper driver's field of vision geometry.

This makes the mirror suitable for use both as a replacement part after damage and as part of an equipment upgrade towards a richer specification.

Condition of the Part and Service Application

The product belongs to the Exterior Mirrors category and is offered as a used part, providing a cost-effective solution while maintaining original BMW specifications. This type of component is particularly useful for accident repairs, replacing a damaged mirror, or retrofitting a car with electric folding and auto-dip function, provided the vehicle is technically prepared for it.
