Hi guys, I want to install folding mirrors into my peugeot 206, I have checked the switch near the handbrake and there are 10 wires, what would I need, new door looms and a new switch with the folding function.
Cheers.

Simple plug & play on mine, all wiring needed for folding mirrors was already there.

I have a peugeot 206 lx 51 plate, I currently have gloss black gti electric mirrors, currently have the white connectors, I count 8 wires on the drivers side and 8 on the passenger side.
The mirrors themselves have 5 on the drivers side and 7 and the passengers side.
Passenger side seems to have
Grey
Yellow
Green
Pink
Green x 2 connected together
Pink
Yellow
Drivers side has the same

Ok to start with you to buy Rolland garros or gt folding mirrors not 180 ones unless u want to cut into the loom and replace the connection blocks, ??
I think if u were to go back and count the wires again I think you will find that it's 7 on drivers side and 9 on passenger side!
But it sounds to me like the wiring is in place because its the grey one from memory which fold out and another one sure it was a darker grey that folds it in.
Anyway go and double check the wires on the mirror loom.

Definitely only 8 wires with only 7 pin connectors inside the connector block, 2 green go into one connection on both sides, pin 8 and 9 on the connector block are unused.
I have taken some photos of the passenger connector block

I tried this on mine ( Same year . ) The wire looms are differant and it's quite a big job hence me having a pair of 180 mirrors and switch in my spare room some years after buying them . At some time the looms were changed in car as a frined of mine had a younger plate than mine I can't remember what year it was though and his looms had extra wires . Also when I had to get replacement mirrors due to mine been knocked off I had to buy a harness adaptor so that they would work with the new mirrors , but this was still differant to the 180 wiring .
