Function and Features
The mirror incorporates dimming functionality that reduces glare from headlights of vehicles behind you. In common implementations this is achieved with electrochromic technology controlled by light sensors and internal electronics, providing automatic adjustment without driver intervention. The unit is a direct interior replacement for vehicles equipped with factory dimming mirrors.
Compatibility and Fitment
Designed to fit Peugeot 807 and Citroën C8 models equipped with an interior auto-dimming mirror. Always check the product codes (14852480XT / 8153SC) against the part you replace to ensure correct fitment. The mirror mounts to the windshield bracket or interior mounting pad common to these models; electrical connector type may vary by equipment level (e.g., with or without integrated sensors).
Replacement Guide
- Park the vehicle on a level surface and disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent short circuits while working with electrical connectors.
- Carefully remove interior trim or mirror cover where applicable to access the mirror mounting point.
- Unclip or unscrew the mirror from the windshield bracket (method depends on factory mount) and disconnect the electrical connector.
- Install the new mirror by reconnecting the electrical plug and securing the mount. Ensure the mirror is seated and locked to the bracket.
- Reconnect the battery, test dimming function and sensors, and refit any trim pieces.
Installation Recommendations
- Perform installation in a clean, dry environment to avoid contaminating sensors or connectors.
- Handle the glass and sensor surfaces carefully to avoid fingerprints or damage to electrochromic areas.
- Ensure connector pins are intact and fully engaged; damaged pins will cause malfunction.
- If the vehicle has additional integrated functions (e.g., compass, microphone), verify operation after installation; some functions may require inspection or calibration but most dimming mirrors are plug-and-play.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
- Moisture ingress or condensation can damage internal electronics or sensors.
- Physical impact or vandalism that cracks the glass or damages the mount.
- Wiring harness damage, corrosion at connectors, or poor electrical contact.
- Age-related failure of electrochromic elements or internal electronics after many years of use.
Who Should Fit This Part
Suitable for experienced DIY mechanics and professional workshops. If you are comfortable removing interior trim and working with electrical connectors, this mirror can be replaced at home; otherwise, have a qualified technician perform the installation.
