• reduces blind spots through precise mirror glass positioning.

This component works with the factory-installed controls in the cabin, ensuring a smooth response to the movement of the knob or buttons responsible for adjustment.

Mounting Compatibility and Placement

The drive has been designed for use in Volkswagen Crafter SY series exterior mirrors, with the possibility of mounting on both the driver's and passenger's sides at the front of the vehicle. This solution allows for:

• maintaining structural consistency of both exterior mirrors,
• facilitating servicing – the same type of drive can be used on the left and right sides,
• reducing vehicle downtime in case of replacement.

Thanks to its factory-fitted design for exterior mirror housings, installation is straightforward, without the need for modifications to the housing or electrical system.
