    Auto Dim Mirror Wired Up

    I had a new screen fitted Yiannis and auto glass bonded the mirror mount onto the new one so provided you get the right adhesive moving the mounting block shouldn't be a problem. Maybe call in at your local screen fitter with a 4 pack and the lads there will re bond it for you. If it helps I can...

    Auto Dim Mirror Wired Up

    If you remove your existing mirror ( push upwards towards roof) Yiannis197 you will be left with the small mounting block attached to the screen. Your new mirror will mount on that. You just need the screen trim which clips over the metal mirror mount. I hope you have that as frustratingly I...

    Auto Dim Mirror Wired Up

    @Yiannis197 are you sure your mirror doesn't fit on the existing mount. The mount on mine is a small metal "block" about 1.5cm square that the alloy mirror mount locks onto.

    200 Interior?

    That's right, mine was factory specked with it. It is the dash centre and the trim strips. That's about it.

    ANPR/Speed Camera Van.. Help?!

    No, the video laser system is completely different, it has a conventional SLR camera type zoom lens. The operative places a red dot over your number plate, locks your speed in then zooms in with you as you approach to get a nice mugshot of you :-)

    ANPR/Speed Camera Van.. Help?!

    The cameras in that are not for speed detection they are number plate recognition cameras. It is possibly a DVLA enforcement vehicle or something your local police are operating. The left one is monitoring approaching traffic and the right one is for receding traffic, they are fixed position...
