Key Features
- Direct-fit replacement for the right/ passenger side of Citroën C5 (2001–2007).

Fitment And Compatibility
This glazed unit is intended for Citroën C5 models from 2001 to 2007 where the passenger-side mirror uses a heated glass element. Before ordering, verify that your original part number or mirror type matches 8151GP and that the mirror housing uses a replaceable heated glass plate.
Function And Common Failure Modes
The mirror glass serves two functions: reflection for rear/side visibility and a heating element to prevent frost and condensation. Typical causes for replacement include:
- Impact damage or cracks from road debris or collisions.
- Delamination or clouding of the mirror surface over time.
- Failure or corrosion of the heating contacts or wiring, which disables the defrost function.
Replacement Guide
Replacing the mirror glass is a straightforward job for a trained technician or an experienced DIYer. Typical steps:
- Move the mirror to a position that gives access to the inner clips (usually fully tilted inward or outward).
- Carefully pry the old glass out using a plastic trim tool to avoid damaging the housing; if the glass is cracked wear protective gloves and eye protection.
- Disconnect the heating electrical connector (if present) from the old glass.
- Align the new heated glass (8151GP) with the housing, connect the heating terminal, and press gently until the retaining clips engage.
- Test mirror adjustment and heating function before finishing.
Note: If clips or the actuator are damaged, replace them or consult a workshop to avoid improper fitment.
