Application and fitment for BMW 1 Series E87

The presented mirror has been designed specifically for the BMW 1 Series E87 as a component mounted on the left side of the vehicle, on the passenger side for right-hand drive versions. The construction based on BMW OE factory solutions guarantees the correct viewing angle, appropriate glass curvature, and compatibility with the standard door mounting.

As a result, the mirror maintains stylistic consistency with the E87 body line, and installation is straightforward for a workshop or a user with experience in working with body components.

Functionality of the heated wing mirror

The heated mirror function significantly improves driving safety in rain, snow, and at low temperatures. The heating element placed behind the glass allows for:

• efficient evaporation of moisture from the mirror surface,
• reduction of frost and thin ice layer accumulation,
• maintaining stable visibility in city traffic and on the road.

Such a solution is particularly useful in daily operation when the car is often left outside and the driver expects the vehicle to be quickly prepared for driving. The heated wing mirror also supports the operation of safety systems that require good visibility in the side zone.

Alpinweiss 3 – 300 color and body aesthetics

The mirror is finished in the factory color Alpinweiss 3 – 300, characteristic of many BMW 1 Series E87 units. Thanks to this, the component harmoniously fits into the body line without the need for additional painting by the user or workshop.

Selecting the correct shade is not only aesthetically important but also practical – a consistent color reduces the risk of shade differences between individual body panels and allows for maintaining a uniform vehicle appearance after side body repairs.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered item comes from the BMW OE used parts group, which means it is an original component previously used in a vehicle. This type of solution is often chosen for accident repairs or restoring a car to its factory state while keeping costs reasonable.

In the case of items such as Wing Mirrors, a used component allows for maintaining factory geometry while enabling an economical replacement of a damaged mirror, especially when compliance with the original manufacturer's specification is a priority.

Technical support and additional information

Before purchasing, it is worth verifying the mirror's compatibility with the specific equipment version of the BMW 1 Series E87, especially in the context of electrical configuration and control type. In case of doubt, comparing the mounting construction and housing shape with the currently installed element is helpful.

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the side body area in your BMW and need other components from the same group, such as housings, glass inserts, or complete sets with electric adjustment, check the available parts in the BMW Wing Mirrors category.
