:bow: I'd always thought my passenger side mirror had been damaged and replaced with a standard mirror glass, I even replaced the drivers side so that they matched :nooo: perhaps I'll put the anti dazzle drivers side glass back in then!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, On my 2003 i have slight differences in the mirror glasses? It was the same on my boxster, i always thought it was a replacement. I assume the drivers can tint hence the difference? Can anyone confirm? Cheers Nick

POST 2Original post

I'm no expert here but you have plain mirrors and ones that darken .. if the interior mirror has a button and a light on it you have the auto dimming system . I though both mirrors including the interior mirror will darken .. as these glasses are horrendous in cost it's not unusual for people to fit a plain mirror in the event one breaks . You can see an outline on the mirror glass if its this type as well .. plain mirrors are just that .

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Demort, I wasn't clear in my post. I meant the side mirrors, the drivers has a frame around the glass and the passenger hasn't cheers Nick

POST 4Original post

Can you post a picture as it sounds like one is auto darkening and the other is not .. I assumed both should be the same type but as i said .. i'm no expert on specs im afraid .

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yeah will do, might be tomorrow now. Thanks again

POST 6Original post

My car is exactly the same. Drivers side has a frame around it, passenger side doesn't. My car has auto dimming but I've never noticed if either of the wing mirrors dims. It never occurred to me that the wing mirrors would dim so I just assumed one mirror glass had been replaced at some point. I prefer the glass without the surround.

POST 7Original post

Mine is also the same, must be how they come or the near side has been replaced at some point.

POST 8Original post

I wondered about this as well, drivers side looks tinted but passenger side isn't Hard to tell as my option codes are filthy but I think mine might have tinted wing mirrors so I'm betting passenger side has been replaced at some point. I don't have a frame on either so not auto dimming.

POST 9Original post

I've done some research on this .. i searched high and low for this answer .. i even took the day off work so i could figure this question out .. Ok i lied .. i looked at a wiring diagram .. anti dazzle mirrors are fitted to the drivers side only RHD and opposite for a LHD car .

POST 10Original post

Thanks DeMort 👍🏼 More cost cutting from when built I guess...

Legend! Thanks for clearing this up
