Before replacing rear view mirrors on the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle, prepare appropriate tools — wrenches of certain diameter, and screwdrivers, and a small container for dismantled fasteners.
Before starting works, disconnect the negative terminal from the battery to avoid short-circuit.
In the cold season, perform all operations in a well heated room. Under the influence of low temperature, the plastic elements become brittle, so the door trim panel or triangular cover retainers may be easily damaged. If this is not possible, warm up the passenger compartment by starting the engine and turning the heater on in an appropriate mode.
To release the retainers on the triangular trim cover, a straight screwdriver is often used. However, this way it is easy to scratch the frame of the door, or the cover itself. To avoid this, use a plastic wedge.
First pull the plastic trim cover towards yourself, and then lift it up. Be careful not to break the retainers and the guide on the cover.
If mechanical rear-view mirrors are installed on the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle, be sure to take a picture of locations of the cables, or mark them, so as not to confuse them during re-installation. Otherwise, the mirrors drive mechanism may work incorrectly.
When unscrewing the last attachment, hold the mirror housing with your hand, otherwise it may fall and break.
Before installing a new component, clean dirt from its seat. Make sure that the connectors are not cracked, and their contacts are not oxidized.
AUTODOC recommends doing the following after rear view mirrors of the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle have been replaced:
Adjust the rear view mirrors on the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle. To adjust the left mirror, sit in the driver's seat and lean to the window as much as possible. The mirror should be adjusted so that the reflection of the fender would take approximately a quarter of the area of the mirror element. The right mirror is adjusted in a similar way, but adjustment should be performed after leaning to the center of the vehicle.
Ask an assistant to walk around the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle at the distance of two meters. His reflection should disappear in the side rear view mirror, and immediately appear in the rear view mirror in the passenger compartment.
Clean the mirror surface, and treat it with a special agent. When using hydrophobic sprays, thin film is formed on the surface of the glass, which prevents mirror fouling, and improves visibility in rainy weather.
Golf Mk5 wing mirror: is a home installation realistic?
Yes. Remove the inner sail trim, support the mirror, undo the mounting fasteners, unplug the multi-pin connector, then refit in reverse. DIY is fine if you protect paint and seals; use a technician for power-fold or memory units to avoid wiring or heater damage.
Does Mk5 Golf wing mirror include turn indicators?
Yes. The Mk5 integrates LED side repeaters in the mirror housing for improved side visibility.
Electric adjust and heating—how are heaters switched on?
Most Mk5 cars have electric adjustment and heated glass. Heating is typically engaged by rotating the mirror switch to the demist icon; on some cars, it also activates with the rear-window demister.
What is the Mk5 width?
Body width is about 1,759 mm (≈ 69.25 in), excluding mirrors. Mirror-to-mirror can approach two metres depending on mirror angle.
Will Mk4 mirrors fit a Mk5?
No. Mk4 (1J) and Mk5 (1K) assemblies differ in mounting pattern, wiring, and caps. They are not plug-compatible.
Can only the glass be replaced?
Yes. Clip-in glass (convex or aspherical, heated or non-heated) is widely available and is the most economical fix for cracked or delaminated lenses.
OE versus alternative—what should I buy?
Genuine VW ensures exact geometry, finish and NVH. Quality alternative brands such as TYC, Van Wezel and ALKAR are cost-effective; match side, heating, indicator presence, pin-count, finish and right-hand-drive specification.
Why is the passenger glass curved?
UK right-hand-drive cars commonly use convex or aspherical passenger glass to expand the field of view and reduce blind spots. Verify lens type when ordering.
Typical UK replacement costs
Mirror glass (clip-in, heated/convex/aspherical) £10–£20 per side. Complete mirror (electric, heated, with indicator, primed/black) £50–£100; painted caps or power-fold raise cost. Independent labour £60–£85/h nationally; London/SE often >£100. Allow 0.5–1.0 h. Indicative totals: glass supplied and fitted £50–£100; complete unit supplied and fitted £110–£190+. Match side, heater/indicator spec, pin-count, finish, and RHD configuration. Add paint if colour-coding, or buy primed caps separately. Check minimum charges.
Is blind-spot monitoring built into Mk5 mirrors?
No factory blind-spot monitoring in the Mk5 mirrors. Aftermarket systems exist and operate independently of the mirror assembly.
Can I return mirrors to AUTODOC if needed?
Standard 14-day returns apply for unused, undamaged parts. “Safe Order” can extend returns to 200 days for a small fee. Free delivery usually starts from a stated basket threshold within Great Britain; exclusions may apply.
