jaysVR6 2 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Guys, either only some VRs came with them or mine dont work. Can anyone enlighten me?Saying that though, I've never even noticed!!!!CRAAAAAAZZY! Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 well, mine has them...isn't yours a highline anyway? will do if so. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 they will feel warm to the touch when they are switched on... does the orange light come on in ur centre console? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 if both of them dont work, it's highly likely that it's a fuse, the rear heated screen operate off the same switch, do you know if that works? if it does, it could a wiring issue ? Link to post Share on other sites
MrBen 0 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 On my old GTI, only one seemed to get warm and then I realised that the other mirror had been cracked and another mirror stuck over the top, so it was too thick for the heat to get through! Link to post Share on other sites
cliveyp 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Are they not the same as the corrado? The heaters on them are permanently on, but the temperature of the elements depends on the ambient temp. I'm sure i remember that right from the manual anyway! Link to post Share on other sites

cliveyp 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 ahh, that'll explain why mine don't always demist then!! Link to post Share on other sites
jaysVR6 2 Posted February 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Hummm, I'll have to have a look. My rear demister works fine, but I'm not sure about the mirrors. Mines not a Highline so will it not have them then? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rich 3 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 My mirrors dont do anything either, but my rear demister does. :-( Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 if you take the glass out you'll see the heater element on the back... you should have the wiring but the glass might have been replaced at some point with the wrong type Link to post Share on other sites
