Purpose and compatibility with BMW 1 Series

The presented wing mirror is designed for BMW 1 Series E81, E82, and E88 body styles, positioned on the right side of the vehicle. The construction, based on the BMW factory standard, guarantees correct geometry, the appropriate viewing angle, and compatibility with the door mounts of these models.

The three-pin electrical configuration allows for proper operation with the vehicle's wiring, which is essential for maintaining adjustment functions and power supply consistent with the specific vehicle version. As a result, the mirror serves as a functional replacement for a damaged part without the need for wiring modifications.

Cashmere Silver Metallic A72 color and body aesthetics

The Cashmere Silver Metallic A72 finish allows for an aesthetic integration of the mirror into the BMW body line. This shade is characteristic of many 1 Series units, meaning that replacing the component does not require additional painting, provided the vehicle's paint matches the same color code.

The metallic coating ensures consistency with the factory paint, and the properly selected surface structure helps maintain a uniform appearance across the side of the vehicle. This is particularly important for post-accident repairs, where both functionality and visual continuity of body parts are essential.

Technical and functional characteristics

The Wing Mirror BMW E81 E82 E88 Outside Right O/S Cashmere Silver - A72 3 Pins belongs to the Wing Mirrors category, meaning it meets the requirements regarding field of view and mounting stability. The design intended for the right side ensures the correct positioning of the mirror glass relative to the vehicle's silhouette and the driver's position.

The presence of a three-pin connector indicates a specific type of electrical installation, which facilitates part selection when comparing it with the existing mirror on the car. This helps reduce the risk of wiring incompatibility and avoids additional electrical modifications during installation.

Used condition and service application

This item comes from the secondary market, making it a reasonable choice for service repairs where the priority is to maintain factory specifications while optimizing costs. This type of mirror is suitable for both post-collision repairs and replacing worn-out components.

For workshops and individual users, using an original used mirror allows for maintaining compliance with the factory body line while preserving the correct mounting and functional parameters.
