Side mirror interior cover fixings MK2 GTI
« on: 11 October 2011, 10:05 »
I have got two new interior covers with plastic lugs for the side mirrors on Mk2 GTI but how do they fix to the car? There are two round holes where the lugs should fit but the lugs are too small. Should there be something in the door to take the lugs?

Are they manual or electric controls?

If you mean you have the round knobs for the end of the manual stocks, there is also a black rubber 'bellow' that seats around the hole in the door card to make it look neat. I dont have a picture to hand im afraid, perhaps someone else has...

Rob Thanks but its not the control its just the triangle shaped interior cover that fits over the interior panel where the mirror is fixed.

There should be some plastic plugs in the holes in the door.

Ahh, that makes sense! Yeah as above, there is a grommit in the two holes in the door
