Then register on the coupe club, ask ade for a price "including mountings"Gary406 wrote:not sure but i want the mounting with the auto mirror just to be on the safe side
It would be nice to have this on my car, as at the moment, the only other thing to do my interior is the chrome handbrake button.
However, I wish the misses job would turn from temporary into permanent.
Instead of doing anymore to my car, i'd like to get a 53 estate preferably in 2.2 hdi guise and defap it

Re: Wanted - Auto Dim Rear View Mirror
I bought my car with a broken mirror (wouldn't dim) so acquired one from an 806 for about £5 off ebay. The mount wasn't the same so just used the existing one, and the connector was different so just took the pins out and put them in the old plug
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

The wire goes through a hole in the mount's ball joint, and up to the plug which if memory serves is just under the mountno2lurch wrote:where was the plug?mjb wrote:I bought my car with a broken mirror (wouldn't dim) so acquired one from an 806 for about £5 off ebay.
