Hey guys,
Quick question, i have just bought some folding mirrors off a GT model which come with the switch and wiring loom. Is that everything i need to swop my existing non electrical folding mirrors off my HDI?
Thanks

All 206 mirrors fold inwards, I think what you mean is electric mirrors, if you're lucky the look should already be there, on some of the 206's they put the wiring in, just didn't put the switch in or connect the wiring.
To answer your questions, yes, that should be everything

You need 9 wires in the passengers loom and 7 in the drivers
Then 10 in the cabin loom

How do you link all them together then if you have 9 , 7 and 10. Sounds a bit confusing lol

Just looked at my wires coming from the mirrors and I have 7 on the passengers and 5 on the drivers side. Does this mean that they were not already installed in and the looms will need changing?

5 from each mirror go to the switch
2 from each mirror go to the rear heated window button
2 from pass window go to mfd
You need new looms

No you'd either have to change the cabin loom, or make your own.

Where the mirror switch is.
That should have been your first port of call before you bought anything.

If you got the mirrors from a GT you'll gonna need to get the soldering iron out
