Intended use and function in the vehicle

The presented mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and was designed specifically for the Audi A3 8V generation models. Mounted on the left side of the vehicle, it is responsible for proper side visibility and blind-spot monitoring on the passenger side, which directly impacts the safety of maneuvers such as changing lanes, overtaking, or parking.

Electric adjustment allows for precise positioning of the mirror glass from inside the car, without the need for manual correction. The OEM design ensures a proper fit to the door, correct electrical wiring routing, and compatibility with the vehicle's factory systems.

Color and paint matching Daytona Grey Pearl Effect – Z7S

The Daytona Grey Pearl Effect – Z7S paint is a distinctive, pearlescent shade of grey used in the Audi range, valued for its understated yet dynamic appearance. Using the original color on the mirror housing allows for:

• maintaining visual consistency of the entire body,
• avoiding shade differences resulting from non-factory painting,
• shortening repair time – in many cases without the need for repainting.

For users who care about the vehicle's aesthetics, this is a particularly beneficial solution when replacing a damaged mirror with a component in the same paint code.

Technical characteristics and installation

The mirror is intended for installation on the left side of the vehicle, which means the body is properly contoured, set at the correct angle, and fitted to the Audi A3 8V door. As an electrical component, it works with the vehicle's factory installation, allowing for adjustment from the control panel inside the cabin.

Key installation features:

• design consistent with factory mounting points in the door,
• adapted for the electrical installation intended for versions with electric adjustment,
• preservation of the original geometry and field of view on the passenger side.

Thanks to maintaining the manufacturer's specifications, the mirror can be used both as a replacement part after a collision and for post-accident repairs, where restoring factory visibility parameters is essential.

Condition of the component and practical application

The offered item is in used condition, which makes it an attractive solution for users looking for a cost-effective yet original body component. Compared to non-factory replacements, the original Audi mirror ensures proper fitment with the door, appropriate body rigidity, and compliance with the styling line of the A3 8V model.

Such a solution is particularly recommended for:

• post-accident repairs,
• replacing a damaged mirror after a parking collision,
• restoring the vehicle to a state close to factory condition after previous modifications.
