Purpose and fitment for BMW 1 Series E87
The presented mirror has been designed specifically for the BMW 1 Series E87 model, which ensures a proper fit to the door shape, body lines, and factory mounting points. Its placement on the right side of the vehicle guarantees compatibility with the RHD steering configuration, and the three-pin setup allows for seamless integration with the car’s electrical system without the need for wiring modifications.
Color and body aesthetics
The mirror is finished in Sparkling Graphite Metallic – A22 paint, characteristic of many BMW 1 Series vehicles. This allows the component to blend harmoniously into the side profile of the car, reducing the need for additional painting when matching a body with the same color code. The metallic coating ensures a consistent visual appeal, and the correct shade helps maintain a uniform look for the entire bodywork after repair.
Functionality and technical parameters of the mirror
The mirror belongs to the Wing mirrors category and is equipped with a three-pin connector, which indicates a specific range of electrical functions provided by the manufacturer. This configuration simplifies part selection during replacement – simply compare the connector type and mounting side to maintain full functionality of the adjustment and control from inside the vehicle. The mirror’s construction ensures stable mounting on the door and an appropriate field of view consistent with BMW’s factory specifications.
Characteristics of the used component
The offered item is from the used category, meaning it was previously in service on a vehicle but retains parameters suitable for continued use. This type of solution is beneficial for accident repairs or routine body maintenance when the priority is to maintain the original construction and compatibility with the vehicle’s factory systems. A used wing mirror represents a reasonable compromise between repair costs and maintaining the proper standard of parts.
Application in service practice
Replacing the right mirror on a BMW 1 Series E87 with right-hand drive is a typical service operation performed after parking damage, side collisions, or excessive wear of the mechanism. Using an original mirror in Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 reduces the scope of additional work, such as housing adjustment or painting, which shortens repair time and makes it easier to maintain a consistent vehicle appearance.
