• "Power" mirror question

    From Percival P. Cassidy@21:1/5 to All on Sat Feb 3 11:03:04 2018

    I bought on eBay a mirror for my '02 300M that was described as a
    "power" mirror that "fits" the 300M and some other Chrysler Corp. models.

    Now I find that it does not have the heat and memory (auto-tilt-down-in-reverse) features. The cable has only 5 conductors
    instead of the 9 in the original.

    Is it reasonable to dispute the description as a "power" mirror?

    But if it said "power mirror" for an '02 300M, how was I supposed to
    know that there are "power mirrors" that fit a 300M but do not have all
    the features that the mirror on a 300M has? How was I supposed to know
    that I ought to have asked?

    I am not unsimathetic but thats part of the hazard of buying on eslay.
    You have to know exactly what you need and that would include looking on
    online parts stores to see if there are options other than what you have.
    He didnt misrepresent it, you just didnt happen to know exactly what you needed. KB

    If you don't have to open the window to move it, it's a power mirror.

    Is the connector in the photo just like your old one? Maybe not.

    Looks like about 12 different mirrors (in English). Six per side. https://www.moparpartsgiant.com/parts-list/2002-chrysler-concorde/doors-related-parts-mirror-exterior.html

    Nope. You have the basic power mirror that fits that car. The one you
    need has more options than just being a power mirror.

    There are at least 6 different mirrors to fit that year/model.
    You need to look for the one that matches your option group.

    The seller listed it as a power mirror that fits, and was correct. Now
    if it had been listed as having heat and power and XXX and it showed up
    and was a manual adjust mirror then you have a complaint.
