How to install folding mirrors for 6N2

Post by jagjot »

I have vw polo 1.6 16v GTI, Year 2000, MKV

I have seen folding, heated, electric mirrors for my car in ETKA car parts website. wondering if this is really possible? that my cars came with folding mirrors?

any ideas guys?

This was an option for the Japanese market. As far as I know it's not an easy retrofit job

I bought these items from ebay.. (could only find one)

This switch works perfectly for right and left electric settings - TESTED already. (only waiting for the mirror to arrive).

The FR didn't exist in 2000-2002. Mirrors will be completely different as the chassis isn't the same
