Mirrors for Sport

Post Mon Feb 17, 2014 7:41 pm

I am looking for a wing mirror unit (GRRRRR).

Are the mirrors for the sport specific to this model, or are there a few that I can consider from the 'For Sale - Parts' section?

Mine was just electric, not heated.

Thanks.

In case you didn't feel it, polsta's winding you up. There is nothing unique about the Sport shell in any way whatsoever - the only unique component is the gearbox.

Ignore polsta. Assuming it's the car in your sig. Mirrors are the same on all standard facelift E30s. Doors from any facelift two door saloon are the same, albeit with an extra hole drilled to accept the sport (mtec) door pod.

Thanks. I was easily wound up there I'm afraid. Just so gutted about being wacked today, that's all. I'm defo not running on six cylinders!

No worries. Just remember that the Wiki has a lot of this sort of info readily available if you need it urgently.

Polsta's joke is just that lots of ebay sellers (and a few less scrupulous traders on here) try and sell standard gear as "SPORT" items, with a 300% markup, just because people think their kitted-up 325i is something special

Thankyou. I appreciate the explanation. Of course, the Sport is something special as we all know
