[QUOTE="Strider, post: 87851, member: 314"] Wing mirror/side mirror for left hand drive are different from right hand drive car (e30 for sure, but don't know about other) So, if your car is RHD, but you have a wing mirror design for LHD, the mirror can't cover to the widest/further angle (i mean the standard mirror, not the wide angle mirror). hi..hi.. I don't know how to explain it. HKH_88, please help me to explain this. p/s. no wonder nobody answer my question, nobody understand the question. hi...hi...my bad, my red indian english. (many man come, after many moon, baby come...hi..hi..) however, thank you very much TJ for trying to help me. I really appreciate that. I try to explain it again. The motor are not working, cause the left mirror are working. (there's only one fuse for both, is it?) I did take out the mirror and try to operate the motor. It did make a single sound every time i triggered the switch. I have a spare wing mirror (the whole assembly, except it is design for LHD car). My idea is to swap the motor between each other. But as TJ explain "...to remove wire or connector or both, pull out hard, it can be removed! but if cannot put back, its your problem!..." The only way i can think now is to cut the wire, swap the motor and joint the wire again. Once again TJ, thanks for the tips. ( i always do that) "...but i think first go check your fuse, theres only 30 to check, so try one by one and see which one needs to be replaced, and while you are checking do switch off the engine / ignition and keep your keys in your pocket, just in case wind blows, it may close your car doors, and your alarm will lock your car!!!!..."
