UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

After some complete to$$er in a corsa decided to wipe my O/S wing mirror out this morning I've been doing some hunting for a new part.

Question is, does a Mk4 golf/bora mirror fit?

My motor still works and it folds in and out ok so all I need (cheapest option) is the cover and a new heated glass.

I would go down the stubby route but they're going for stupid money! Also if I get a pre painted MK4 golf cover, is it diamond black on them?

Cheers

Apparently a mk4 golf one does fit, but youll need to get the cover to match the mirror body

Polo ones are readily available on ebay etc.

So same cover but a different base/body?

I've seen black covers on ebay for about £16 posted but it was only listing the Mk4 golf.

Someone on here must have a spare who's done the stubby conversion?

The cover matches the base ie stubby cover stubby base, big cover big base etc.

Ah cool, I just need a standard (blind spot) mirror

So a big one not a stubby one?

Yeah I can't afford a stubby one so it'll just be a standard O/S mirror glass and cover.

From the dealer, primed, the covers are only £20ish

Might be easiest to buy a cover from the dealer, and spray it up yourself

Looking at the part numbers, the small mk4 golf one should fit the stubby polo base, but the larger mirror wont.

I'll phone lookers up tomorrow and get one then, cheers
