Does any1 no if u can get a chrome mirror housing for the door mirrors on a mk1 leon?? and where????

Obviously I dont want any dodgy replacements due to them been electric.

:think:
 
Depends if the OPs got the newer tear drop style mirrors or the older Golf style ones.
 
ive got a set mate.boxed as new ,cost me £60 from halfrauds,yours for a tenner plus postage dont need them as i have lcr with tear drop mirrors:p
 
Will take a look for the box later on and get it (if i remember) A SEAT dealer will have the number and be able to order them for you though...

Ive actually took mine off for the winter cause the salt and grit make a right mess of them!
 
I got my chrome tear drop style covers from SEAT £40!

So U can get teardrop style covers without replacing the mirror?? were they easy to fit?? and if u could find a part number that wud b gud :funk:
 
I have a set of carbon mirror covers for sale as i have bought the later style mirrors. I wan £40 for them including postage!!!! They are in mint condition.
 
I got mine from a seat dealers for about £40ish, you have to prize out the mirror glass which isn't easy I cracked one and it cost me about £30, after that the covers come off really easy about 4 or 5 plastic pins go through the mirror housing, fitted mine in about 15 - 20 Min's. good luck getting the glass out it's in there nice and tight.
 
i have had mirror covers on both of my cupras,the first was a y reg cupra 180 and current 04 lcr and on both occaisions i did not have to remove yhe glass .:lol:

Yeah its just the back that unclips, fold your mirrors in and prise off from the hinge side first. Easy enough to do! And you don't need to remove the glass.

I forgot to look for the part no. i'm nightshift this week so my head is up me arse.... :(

To replace the early style square mirrors. You have to take the glass off. Remove the small screws (if they are still there.Prone to coming off on their own). Lift the cover off starting from the bottom and pull upwards making sure to gently pull back on the plastic clips on the inside on the mirror.


To replace the covers on the later, teardrop style mirrors. Fold the mirror in and pull the cover off starting from the innermost part (nearest the door). They just unclip and push to refit.

SEAT will tell you that the chrome mirror covers are not compatable with folding mirrors. Also says this on SEAT's site last I checked. They go straight on and the mirror folds without any problems.
