Yep

how do i change it? is it hard? where does the electric switch go


etc

 

[Ad Lav]

Umm... pass on that!

The switch goes near the window operator switch, you'll have to buy that an the plate that goes with it...

The switch goes where your mirror adjuster knob thingy goes. Up for right mirror, down for left and centre for heat. I've got heated mirrors on mine-its a great thing on a chilly morning to be able to see a bit more!

if your going to do that you may aswell get the electrically folding heated ones like on my fr

yeah might as well tbh
im sure i'll find them on ebay or can you get them from the dealers?


also are the folded ones harder to fit or just the same?

cheers

Had a small look into this awhile ago, the items I've described are what I think you'll need, you could need more or less.

Have a look at this thread if you want... http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=74914&highlight=mirrors

mine came with electric ones, I will have a look at the wiring n grab some pics when I next need the door card off (could be soon)

Are all electric ones heated or is it an option?

Mine are electric and non-folding but didn't defrost yesterday morning (when it was -5 degC) even though I had the back demister on.

The heated mirrors isnt connected to the rear demister in any way it should be on the wing mirror adjustment knob if you have it you should have a logo inbetween the L and R and the folding is also controlled by that same knob
