#1: Wing mirror motor Author: Maybury180, Location: MiddlesbroughPosted: Tue Jun 28, 2011 10:12 am ---- Hi all does anyone know how to change the motor in the electric folding wing mirrors on the 206 gti 180?
Any help will be much appreciated.

The motor will be rusted up
Lots of torx 20 screws.
Then there's 4 rivets that need drilling out to strip these mirrors down once apart, long countersunk self tapping screws are the way round the rivets on reassembly, i couldn't find a supplier for them.

I spent months looking for someone and bought numerous from model shops and none are powerful enough
Its a new mirror I'm afraid

Scaletrix ones weren't powerful enough for mine. Burnt three out on two different sets of mirrors.

Bought some from a RG [the ones i showed you ages ago that were totally different to yours] and two sets from a GT

Also got enough bits & pieces in stock to keep them going
Repaired both folding motors before, had a pcb go pop once, lucky ive got spares
