This item belongs to the Exterior Mirrors group, responsible for correct side and rear visibility, as well as the aesthetic finish of the car's side profile. The use of original mirror geometry promotes a stable, predictable image, which is important when changing lanes and maneuvering in urban traffic.

Features and Technical Equipment

The mirror offers extensive functionality, characteristic of higher trim levels of the BMW 3 E90/E91. The design includes, among other features:

• integrated mirror surface heating, assisting in defogging and de-icing the glass,
• auto dip function when reversing, facilitating observation of curbs and parking lines,
• power fold, allowing the mirror to be folded from inside the vehicle.

This combination of features enhances everyday usability while reducing the risk of damage when parking in tight spaces. The use of original electrical solutions ensures proper integration with the vehicle's factory electrical system.

Exterior Appearance and Color

The mirror housing is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic - 475, a color characteristic of BMW's paint palette. The metallic finish complements the 3 Series body lines, allowing for an aesthetically pleasing replacement of a damaged part without altering the car's overall color scheme. This makes the mirror suitable for use as a replacement part after an accident or during a phased renovation of the vehicle's side body.

Characteristics of a Used Part

As a used BMW exterior mirror, this component comes from a dismantled vehicle and retains the original manufacturer's construction. Such parts are often chosen for collision repairs where a balance between reasonable cost and maintaining factory specifications is important. The user receives a complete mirror module with preserved electrical functionality, ready for further use after proper installation.

To maximize the potential of dismantled parts and minimize their future wear, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with practical tips on maintenance and operation – you can find them in the article How to Extend the Lifespan of Used Car Parts?.

Application Area and Mirror System Expansion

The mirror operates in a critical side body zone, exposed to contact with other vehicles, parking posts, or curbs. Replacing it with a functional unit restores the full functionality of the mirror system, including correct adjustment, folding, and heating.
