Just in process of buying a set of vgc teardrop mirrors with glass and gaskets but no wiring to replace my bashed flag mirrors on my '77 Carrera. Has anyone tried this and will the wiring interchange, if not is there a way of hooking them up to operate electrically. I suppose I should have checked this before buying!!
Thanks
Damien

To be honest even the pre-91 964's didn't even have the right wiring, it's a soldering job unfortunately matey!!
Very expesnive to get the full harness back for each door, not worth it IMO, just get a good autoelectrician and he'll sort it!!

Thanks for that, I lost the item on ebay at the last minute and with hindsight I am pretty relieved!!
What part of Scotland are you in, I stayed in Fife for a couple of years, I wish I had had my 911 then, some beautiful roads, spectacular scenery and a lot less traffic

I wouldn't spend 160$ on them, I'd get the auto to do it by soldering them for way less than that if you do the prep work of removing the mirrors.
Allen key them loose but not off and then the mirror will just come off.
