I'm not sure if they even made them. Though since the Mk4 electric heated mirrors were standard, though on the Mk7 VW have brought them back on the E models (cheap skates!)

They dont exist.

All 6N2 models, in the UK at least, came with electrically adjustable ones even the E.

i would say 99% yes as there are wires on that picture, unless it is just showing a unit not specified to the one he is selling, and they only did electric mirrors mate

I'd say electric, the wire you can see pokes through a hole in the door (where the mirror goes) and then plugs in to the harness on the door.

Hmmm looked up ETKA:

6N1857507G
rear view mirror housing / for rear view mirror:
left lhd 150X105 / PR-6XB

6N1857507H
rear view mirror housing / for vehicles with rear view mirror electrically operated and heated / for rear view mirror:
left lhd 150X105 / PR-6XD

Maybe manual mirrors do exist, I've never seen them myself. Anyway I'd say that's electric

thinking about it, remember the polo is predominantly a german car, so there may have been a european version with manual mirrors etc....just a thought

But i do know, all UK specs are electric mirrors 8)

The mirror in the picture is a manual one. Thats a cable adjustment you see and not wires. They made manual mirrors in europe, just not here. If you wanna see a pic of one look on clublupo as they're the same mirrors.
