Not all of them do. Some 180 ones don't have carbon fibre. As for folding I don't need that. but obvioulsy I will need to adjust them! GTI parts are so cheap compared to 180 parts. Not fair Sad

who has told you that not all 180's come with CF mirror caps?

Me. I've seen loads of 180s with just black caps (unless they have all been changed?!) I also bought a mirror when I smashed it before and it came off a 180 also did not have carbon fibre top.

all 180s came with microcarbon mirror cappings if its hasnt got them its been nicked/damaged and replaced with a normal one

Are 180 mirrors auto folding? If they are then you will lose this as GTi138's are not. Otherwise they will be fine! Smile

(Just make sure they have the smae plug, although this can be cut off and manually re-wired, The wiring system does not matter for wing mirrors.)

yes the 180's fold, pretty cool! also makes it more expensive! 75 quid a side if i remember correctly.

£75.00 for a used one. Brand new dread to think. Don't need folding mirrors though, pointless if you ask me unless you park your car on a road regularly which I don't.

They're around £220 each from Pug.

Mel you has to fix it! Mod Nats and all that!! lol..

How about a compact mirror sellotaped to the car on a twig? Could work, and you'd be the first to do that kinda custom mod!

On a more serious note, just ask the people offering you them to send you a picture of the conncetors, if they match yours all should be good Smile

GT mirrors are pre-plexed.

Yes, they can be wired in, but who really wants the hassle.

I'd just put a 138 mirror on if you dont use the folding and save the money for something else.

I've already done that idea like 3 1/2 years ago!! Maybe I will just have no mirror. Start a new trend.

If I can find the money I can have the pug back on Monday!! New rear lights (which I won on ebay for 99p haha), tinted back window are in the post. Bodyworks being sorted so just the mirror to go. Ahh I can't wait to get him back Very Happy

Yes the mirrors have different plugs.
I had to cut the connectors from the mirror and put the original 180 connector on the 138 mirror.
It was fairly straight forward if I remember correctly the colours are the same and you'll have two spare wires coming from the connector. Make sure you isolate and insulate the spare wires.
I prefer the original if one comes along for the right price, it will then just plug back in the original connector.
