Purpose and function of the Mini mirror holder

This interior rearview mirror mount is a component from the "rearview mirrors" group, responsible for securing the mirror securely to the rear window. Designed specifically for the Mini R55, R56, R60, and R61 series, it ensures proper fit to the shape of the window, headliner, and plastic covers in these bodies.

A properly selected handle guarantees:

• stable mirror position without vibrations while driving,
• correct rear visibility angle as per factory specifications,
• visually consistent assembly with other Mini interior elements.

Design and fit for Mini R55/R56/R60/R61 models

The bracket is structurally adapted to the Mini's interior architecture, taking into account the specific windshield profile and the arrangement of components in the upper cockpit. This ensures predictable installation without the need for modifications or aftermarket adapters.

Key design features of the handle:

• factory mounting geometry – compatible with the original Mini interior mirror,
• adapted for installation in the rear of the vehicle (rear view area),
• compatibility with the factory mounting point on the windshield.

By maintaining the original design, the holder allows for easy removal of the mirror from a damaged mount or restoration of full functionality after replacing the glass, provided a suitable mounting point is provided.

Condition, origin and benefits of using a used part

This item comes from a disassembly, meaning it's a genuine Mini part with factory specifications. Used condition is a good option for mounting brackets because:

• dimensional compliance with the factory mirror is maintained,
• the original attachment and guidance points are retained,
• some of them are already "tested" in real operating conditions.

Compared to aftermarket replacements, the original aftermarket bracket minimizes the risk of fit problems, too loose or too tight mirror mounting, and unsightly gaps in the headliner.

Why is it worth using the original Mini rearview mirror holder?

Replacing a damaged mirror mount with an original mount from the same Mini model family allows you to restore full rearview functionality without interfering with the interior design. This solution is especially recommended in situations where:

• the handle was damaged during windshield replacement or collision,
• the mirror is noticeably loose or drooping,
• repair is necessary after incorrect installation of the replacement.

By using the original Mini interior rearview mirror holder, you retain the factory safety and ergonomic parameters, as well as the aesthetics characteristic of this brand.
