Technical characteristics of the photochromatic mirror

This interior rearview mirror is designed for installation in the vehicle's cabin. Its photochromatic technology automatically adjusts the tint to the intensity of light from behind the vehicle, reducing driver fatigue and improving visibility on the road.

The mirror is designed for mounting in the rear of the cabin, on the windshield, in the standard location provided by the vehicle manufacturer. This preserves the factory field of vision and ensures ergonomic operation. The silver housing finish blends harmoniously with typical Audi interior designs, creating a cohesive, aesthetically pleasing cockpit appearance.

Intended use and fitment for Audi A4 B8

The Audi A4 B8 Photochromic Interior Rearview Mirror is designed for full integration with the vehicle's installation. The Audi-specific design allows for the retention of factory mounting points and the correct angle relative to the driver. This ensures predictable installation and stable mirror positioning during everyday use.

This component is perfect both as a replacement for a damaged mirror and as a functional addition to your interior upgrade. Using an original Audi-specific solution reduces the risk of compatibility issues and ensures quality workmanship.

Condition, functionality and benefits of installation

The mirror is offered in used condition, meaning it has been removed from a used vehicle while retaining its functionality. This is a sensible choice for drivers looking for a technically sound component at an attractive cost-to-quality ratio. A used component allows for reduced repair or upgrade costs while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications.

The most important benefits of using a photochromatic mirror:

• Automatic dimming – reduces glare from the headlights of vehicles behind you.
• Better night driving comfort – less eye fatigue for the driver.
• Factory fit for Audi – maintaining the original ergonomics and aesthetics of the interior.
• Reasonable cost – used component as an economical alternative to a new part.

Color and aesthetics in the Audi interior

The silver color of the mirror housing complements typical Audi interior finishes, such as aluminum trim, light headliners, and neutral upholstery tones. This allows the interior mirror to not only serve a practical purpose but also contribute to a cohesive, uncluttered look in the cockpit. This is especially important when preserving the vehicle's original interior character.
