I'm looking for an auto-dimming rear-view mirror from a 1st generation MINI. I would MUCH prefer it to have the universal garage door opener. Please PM me if you happen to have one laying around!

(Not sure if the cabrios have a different setup for the rear-view mirror, so in the event that they do, I'm looking for one from a coupe.)

 

Bump. We are now looking for two of these.

 

That makes us 3. Does Mini make an OEm one of those?

 

MINI makes an OEM one, but they are very expensive.

 

Any part number?

 

Good luck. I've been looking for one for a while. BTW, first in line. I posted a WTB long time ago.

 

Part number is 51167128726

Price at Pelican Parts is $622.25

 

51 16 7 128 722

 

How about 51-16-9-125-573 Interior Mirror with Automatic Dip for vehicles with EC/LED/Remote Control $465.15 Shipped in US.

This supercedes the 51-16-7-128-726 #

51-16-7-128-722 is not a valid part # in the latest ETK.

 

EC/LED/Remote Control. Is that some new features? 465.15 is better than 622 but still lots of cabbage. I am thinking of buying a BMW visor unit on ebay and giving it go on my own.

 

Bump

 

I PMed MotoringSpeed yesterday for some parts and the reply was that he's not in business any more. I'm so sad to see a vedor leaves and a business closes. I had so much beleive on that vendor for all my future purchases.

Man, thanks for the link. I can see a power cord out the holder of the Mirror. Anyone knows where would it be hooked up?

 

That mirror looks like the first itereration for the '02-'04 (smaller than the late '04-'06 mirror). I put one in my '02 and had to run a switched power wire and ground up to it, no big deal. You may get lucky and the connector may be there from the factory. Before they changed the mirror to a larger one in mid to late '04 the mirror simply spins 45 degrees to release from the holding clip. From what I have read the larger mirror included the chip for the remote entry to give it better range so you would need the correct mirror and move the chip over.

 

TTT

 

My question is, can a later mirror (say and '08) be put on an older vehicle (I have an '03)
