hi

they only came with the instructions on how to put the mirrors together as they came in 3 parts. the car has got 2 black wires,1 red,1 blue,1 purple and the m3 mirror has got 1 blue,1 white,1 black, 1 brown.we have tryed putting all the wires in different combinations but the mirror wont move in the right directions as to the way you want them to

if you can help id be very grateful

Its anyones guess without a wiring diagram

Depends if the mirrors have 2 motors or just 1 and a solenoid to change it from vertical to horizontal adjustment.

I can only guess without a wiring diagram of the mirrors, my guess wont be any better than yours

Whats the difference between the 3 wire and 4 wire ones then? You'd need an extra wire for the heater elements?

Did either of the M3 mirrors have heaters in them then?

The heaters turn on with the rear window aswell btw
