I have a Citroen C3 Picasso 2009 (2009-2016 varient) 1.6 HDI.
The passenger wing mirror the casing has come off. The glass, electrics are all OK so I just need replacement casing.
Citroen sent me a part that clips on. But this not the right size even though they took my reg down.
I have attached pictures showing the damaged wing, the drivers wing and what Citroen sent me.
I want to know exactly what I should be asking for without having to go to the whole process if buying a new unit and wiring it in.
Can anyone help?

Re: Wing mirror c3 picasso
There are 3 variants.... post up your VIN and we can see which is fitted. Do you know what part number was supplied?

Do those mirrors look odd? left and right different types?

Re: Wing mirror c3 picasso
Your problem is that the cover itself is the part shown on your last photo (number 2 on the diagram - the painted part) not the housing. From your other pictures, it looks like it is the housing that is missing, not just the cover - so you need the whole mirror. There are no other parts sold for this.
The complete passenger mirror for your car new is priced at £143.42 inc. VAT - unpainted
Part number is:
8153XQ (Left hand side)
Mirrors are supplied primed but not painted and are the same price for each. If looking for a second hand one, then search on this part number.

Re: Wing mirror c3 picasso
Well a wing mirror for my C5 is £1000, so cheap by comparison. Use the part number I gave you to look for a second hand one:
There's an original Citroen one here from Germany for 67.74 + £16 shipping - still less than half the price of the dealer....

Beware some 'pattern' parts that are around the £50 mark - they are not original parts - they may be fine, but no guarantees.
