More detailed comments...
The good: It arrived quickly and unbroken, the price was good, item as specified including E-marked head and plastic-primed over cap (not fitted, thank heavens). Once installed, worked fine and mirror glass is decent.
Quibbles: Fit to the upper corner is poor. All lugs and screwholes are good, but some work with a heat gun would improve the mirror plinth's fit immensely. Also the plugs are a multifit type and not necessarily colour-coded. You could accidentally swap the ones for heated glass, ultrasonic sensors and temp sender. Main wires were 1½" shorter than stock, so the conduit doesn't fit in the forward bailey channel clip anymore. Also it doesn't take OEM glass (different fixings), so you are bound to aftermarket glass if this breaks.
Summary: Most people would be quite happy with one, especially if the fitter "tweaked" that upper plinth corner a little.
