PeterS Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 My A4 doesn't have heated mirrors; they were standard on the A3 (the cheapest car Audi sell in the case of ours; a 3 door 1.6 Special Edition), but not on the A4 :confused: They're even fitted to my '88 BMW 325i Touring, and they still work... I didn't order them, entirely my fault: I thought they were standard based on our A3 and also the B6 1.9 TDI Sport Avant I'd had back in '03, which I could have sworn had them fitted...perhaps included as part of the upgraded 'Sport' pack on offer at the time Anyway, I'd like them on my car; a forum search throws up a thread from '05 indicating that the wiring is all there, and that I can just buy a pair of heated mirror glasses and fit them and all will work. Anyone know if this is still the case, before I attempt to lever off the current mirrors to take a look (probably breaking at least one of them in the process ) Thanks Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I am pretty certain that you can just change the glass and that the wiring is there as with the B6, however I've never owned a B7 so couldn't to 1000% sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterS Posted August 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Thanks for the reply If I'm feeling brave / lucky tomorrow I might try prizing one off to take a look Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I have a driver's side heated glass that's about to go on ebay if that's any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterS Posted August 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Thanks Not got round to prizing the mirror off yet; let me try this evening and get back to you Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
putz Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Wiring was present for the heated option in my Dad's 2006 B7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterS Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 A quick update on this; I finally got round to prizing off a mirror; the wiring is there and I did break a mirror in the process , and the replacements were easy to fit Surprised to find that the heated mirror glasses weren't in stock at my local dealer (though they did turn up next day); I thought they'd be a stock item, people must break them all the time :confused: Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterS Posted October 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 As it's now been cold enough here to activate them, I can also confirm that they work Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
