Auto-dimming mirror

**m4tt** · 2nd February 2009, 13:52

Hi,

I have just purchased a 2006 Signum Elite, I have noticed that my centre and drivers side mirrors auto dim at night when required, but my passenger mirror does not seem to be doing this. Firstly could anyone confirm that the passenger mirror should auto-dim with the others, and also has anyone any ideas what may cause this (anything simple I can check) and if so how much would a repair possibly cost. (Although under 3 years old it has over 70k on the clock so I imagine Vauxhall would not cover this under the Warranty).

Thanks

A left hooker will have the dimming mirror on the passenger side - you could try and source one of those. Now whether the wiring is in place on your car or not is another matter.
