Purpose and technical features

The presented mirror is intended for the left side of the vehicle, which guarantees proper mounting geometry and the correct viewing angle for the driver. The design includes the Auto Dip function, which is the automatic tilting of the mirror glass when reversing, facilitating the observation of the curb and the rear wheel area.

The unit is equipped with power folding, allowing the mirror to be folded from inside the vehicle, which reduces the risk of damage when parking in narrow spaces. Integrated mirror glass heating supports maintaining image clarity in low temperatures and high humidity.

Construction and fitment for BMW E92/E93

The mirror housing has been designed specifically for the BMW E92/E93 series, which translates into a proper fit with the door line and factory mounting points. The applied geometry of the housing and the glass is consistent with the manufacturer's factory specifications, which helps maintain the appropriate field of view and operational ergonomics.

The Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 finish allows for installation without the need for additional painting in the case of vehicles in the same shade, and in other color configurations, it provides a solid base for potential paint matching.

Performance parameters and operational comfort

The Auto Dip function works with the seat and mirror memory settings, which facilitates daily operation in vehicles equipped with extensive electric adjustment. The mirror glass heating improves driving safety in winter conditions, shortening the time needed to defog or defrost the surface.

The power folding of the mirror reduces mechanical stress on the hinge during city maneuvering, while simultaneously allowing for a quick return to the working position after starting off. The whole unit creates a coherent, functional set that restores the full functionality of the factory mirror system in the BMW E92/E93.

Condition of the item and service application

The offered exterior mirror is a used item, which makes it an attractive service solution in the event of a collision, parking damage, or wear and tear. For workshops and individual users, it represents a technically matched alternative to new components, allowing for the preservation of the vehicle's original specification while optimizing repair costs.

Compatibility within the BMW group

The mirror has a dedicated OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific vehicle configuration. Before purchasing, it is worth comparing the car's equipment (e.g., presence of memory settings, heating, power folding) with the functions of the offered mirror to ensure full electrical and mechanical compatibility after installation.
