Hi all

I've been on the look out for a pair of plastic mirrors for my S8 for ages and have come across some at sensible money. Unfortunately the car was broken some time ago so they can't tell me whether the seats were electric memory and if the mirrors are electric fold or not, both of which I want so I know the nearside mirror will dip in reverse.

Are there variations in the numbers of pins connected at the plug depending on how many twiddly bits there are in the mirror electrics that would make it easy enough to check if they're correct or not? Any obvious fittings for the auto dip function that aren't present on non-dipping mirror?

I've got the reg for the car, but unfortunately not the VIN so I'm expecting Audi to tell me to get stuffed when/if they ring me back.....

I know the mirror part number I need for the passenger side (4d2858531bd) and I'm assuming if that one is right then the driver's side should be fine too.

Tearing my hair out on this one.....

Cheers

Adrian
