Good point and I'll check, though looking at my current mirrors they both seem to have the same curvature.....
And indeed they do, just checked by comparing my reflection in them to the spare (ready to fit) dimming nearside mirror I already have (thanks RICKY D on here).
Same tint and curvature and the part numbers and other labelling on that and the one I'm buying correspond nicely.
So it's worth a punt as it's a good price - I think they've not realised it's a dimming version.
If it's wrong I'm sure I can sell it to someone with a D2 LHD...
