Purpose and fitment for BMW 1 Series

The presented mirror is dedicated to BMW 1 Series models of the E81, E82, and E88 generations, mounted on the right side of the vehicle. The design was developed for factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and limits the need for additional bodywork or electrical modifications. By maintaining the original geometry of the housing and mirror glass, the component supports the proper field of view and driving ergonomics characteristic of this BMW series.

Electric folding function

The mirror is equipped with an electric folding function, which increases convenience during daily use in urban conditions and when parking in tight spaces. The use of the factory folding mechanism:

• facilitates protection of the mirror against accidental impacts,
• ensures smooth operation in accordance with the vehicle's factory settings,
• allows for integration with the existing BMW electrical system without additional modifications.

Kaschmirsilber Metallic A72 color and body aesthetics

The mirror housing is finished in Kaschmirsilber (Cashmere Silver) Metallic A72, characteristic of selected BMW 1 Series paint configurations. Thanks to this, the element can be used as a replacement for a damaged mirror in a vehicle with the same paint code, which limits the need for additional painting or allows it to be postponed. The metallic coating promotes visual consistency with the other body panels and preserves the original character of the car.

Condition, origin, and benefits of choosing OEM parts

The mirror comes from the line of original BMW components and is offered as a used part, which is a reasonable compromise between cost and maintaining factory parameters. Choosing an original wing mirror:

• ensures compatibility with the factory electrical installation and interior controls,
• reduces the risk of problems with the fitment of the housing to the door and seals,
• allows you to maintain the consistent finish standard characteristic of BMW.

Integration with other BMW wing mirrors
