I am maybe looking to upgrade my wing mirrors to the gti180 ones for electrically folding. If i buy the mirrors, is there anything extra i need if i am wanting to do a straight swop for my electrically adjustable ones i have on my HDI?
Cheers

probably need the different looms if you dont have the same plugs. Also switch.

I dont know if the looms are right or not tbh. The model i have is the HDI XSI which has electric mirrrors as standard but not the folding part.

check the colour of the plugs on the mirrors and the colour of your plugs to your mirrors. i have a feeling you might need different looms.

OP is talking electric FOLDING mirrors
Not all 206's have the 2 extra wires in the cabin & door looms for electric folding

Might be an idea to take the tweeter cover off, and see if you have 6 wires on the plug coming from the car.

Depends on the door & cabin looms Peugeot fitted at the factory.
Some dont have the extra 2 wires needed for the folding function
On plexed 206's I know GTI & GLX should have them.

GT they where factory fitted so the looms are going to be there
GTI & GLX never had electric folding mirrors factory fitted.
