Pegasus.
It's in there somewhere ! Have you got the door panel off ? The plug gets wedged in between two tin bits and is awkward to get at.

The lead from the mirror is about 300mm long, so won't be far away and has 1 black & 1 white plug - similar size plugs to the ones on the window switches.

Both the plugs for the mirror are attached to a plastic mount just to the left (if passenger door) of the door module multiplug :)

HTH :)

Paul, when you do get it off be sure to replace it correctly. It MUST be the correct side of the window stay or it will foul the glass and stop the window from closing.......a garage did that once to mine!! ::). Also if you have any spare 'mode' switches Freddieboy might need one at the next meet. Good luck, Mike.

Got them off. Fiddly or what (thanks Howard).

Don't get any of that butyl adhesive (that holds the foam in place)on your hands - it sticks like poo to a blanket :P
