I believe they are for the electro chromatic tinting so they dim when car headlights are bright behind. The mirror glass is about £80 more expensive, so if the glass gets smashed, many owners don’t bother and get the standard glass.

I had these on a Jeep GC years ago. They simply deal with over-bright headlights in the same was as the interior mirror |

Think yourself lucky sir... A 2003/4 electro chromatic glass would have cost you £400 at one point |

So that is how the rear view works. I think I would love this on the driver's side mirror. Just another reason to take it apart and fix the wobble. |
