I don't know as regards MB but from experience with SEVELs there are a big variety of mirror variants and quite a complicated electrical connection to the mirror to cover adjustment integrated flasher temperature sensor (in some cases) integrated aerial (in some cases) and motorised retraction if fitted. An OEM mirror for a Citroen Relay can cost upwards of £500 and MB parts are famed for being inexpensive.
As regards the wiring, in build some manufacturers have a lot of wiring built into the loom by default to cover a variety of option choices but others only wire in for the specifics. A good main dealer parts department with the benefit of your VIN number may be able to advise you if it is possible. However sourcing mirrors new may cost a four figure sum so a reputable breaker may be your next option.

Posted on 02/11/2019 22:36 by Bob McNairThank you BlueVanMan and MollysMummy.
BlueVanMan, did you mean expensive not inexpensive?
MollysMummy, Ah well! I'll just stick with what I've got. They don't need adjusting that often anyway.
