Intended use and fit for BMW models
The BMW F01 F02 F10 F11 F12 LCI rearview mirror was designed specifically for selected F-Series models after retrofit. The design is adapted to the factory windshield mount and the manufacturer's electrical system, making installation easier and reducing the need for modifications.
Its rear-cabin location provides the driver with a clear view of what's happening behind the vehicle, while maintaining an ergonomic and comfortable driving position. Thanks to the use of an original BMW solution, compatibility with the vehicle's factory systems is maintained.
EC/LED/FLA Features and Usage Benefits
The mirror is equipped with advanced functions that increase the comfort of everyday use:
- EC (electrochromatic dimming) – automatic reduction of glare from the lights of vehicles behind, which improves night driving comfort and reduces eye fatigue.
- LED – integrated LED lighting (e.g. lighting the area under the mirror) provides even, eye-pleasing light in the interior, increasing the functionality of the cabin after dark.
- FLA (high beam assistant) – preparing the mirror to cooperate with the automatic high beam control system, which allows for intelligent switching between low beam and high beam, depending on road conditions.
This combination of functions makes the mirror not just a simple piece of equipment, but an important component of the comfort and safety systems in BMW.
Construction, build quality and condition
As an original BMW rearview mirror, this element is characterized by precise craftsmanship and a perfect fit with the interior styling of the F Series models. The housing has been designed to blend harmoniously with the headliner, center console, and other cockpit elements, creating a cohesive, aesthetically pleasing layout.
Used condition means the mirror has been removed from a used car, retaining its functionality and original design. This is a beneficial solution for users who want to restore the factory system or retrofit their car while optimizing the cost of a new part.
Why choose this BMW rearview mirror?
Choosing an original interior mirror with EC/LED/FLA functions brings a number of practical advantages:
- Factory fit – maintaining the original interior appearance and compatibility with the BMW electrical system.
- Greater comfort when driving at night – automatic dimming and appropriate interior lighting improve visibility and driver comfort.
- Assistance system support – the ability to work with the high beam assistant increases the car’s functionality.
- A sensible economic choice – a used, original part allows you to maintain high quality at a lower cost compared to a new part.
