Nice find!

Looks a bit of a pig to install though!

These things got me very excited a year or so ago - a solution to the clock problem which lI could actually live with!

There have been several posts in the US re. installing these - here is just one example:

Excellent, excellent I thought..........a little more research.......no clock option is available.

Bollox!

If anyone does find a similar item with a clock option I am in there (and assuming they will need to be sourced from the US, happy to bring 3 or 4 back on my next visit.

Oh yes....funny how these little things come back to you.....removal of the old mirror involves taking a blow-torch to your windscreen!

We have an auto-dimming rear mirror in the Passat.

I hate it. Makes it difficult to see anything in the mirror at all if there is a car behind you with their lights on. It's like looking through smoked glass most of the time because it seems to dim at every opportunity.

Blimey, these things could certainly make looking in the mirror more interesting.
