Looking for a rearview mirror for a 1999 v70r. Preferably be located in either Oregon, northern California, or southern Washington, as I am looking to pick it up in person. Must have pics. Name a price!

What is unique about an 'R' mirror? What have I been missing all this time? I thought all P80 rear-view mirrors were the same?

I don’t think Rs came with a rear view as there isn’t anyone behind you....

Too funny. I thought it was the other way around though where everyone is behind you

Love looking at BMW's in the rear view mirror. This is where they belong =)

Maybe they have the same mirror as other models? I actually am not sure. I tried to see the difference online but without having a couple different ones side by side it's hard for me to be sure. Could anyone clear this up for me?

Try punching in your VIN INTO volvo parts lisle and I’ll do the same for mine to compare

My 99 T5 comes up as 3512654 internal rear view mirror

Vida would appear to list that same part number for 92-00 P80 cars of all versions. It does mention a 'Manual dipswitch' so the only reasons another option may be available is possibly another market option, or:

1) Color coded? I thought they were all black or dark gray?
2) Maybe there is a version that automatically dips the rear view mirror, but never seen one? Is it like rear 3rd row seat heaters?
