Heated Door Mirrors

Unread post by wigelywoo »

Is it easy to fit new glass to door mirror on C5
It looks like either mine fell off or somescum borrowed it.
Can you buy the glass on its own and how does it fix on?

Many thanks

I am not familier with the C5 but as it shares some parts with the XM the mirrors may be similar. Th XMs have a plastic ring on the back of the glass that snaps into another ring on the mirror.

Some of the Xantias and Xsaras have a mirror which fastens using a spring clip which you access through the gap between mirror and housing. Unfortunately making them easily nickable.

My 2002 model C5 mirror glass just presses into place. No clips or springs.

Glass is available on its own, about £20 at GSF. No idea how much at dealers.
