OUTSIDE MIRROR FOR BMW 3/Compact/E46 N46B18A N42B18A 1.8L N42B20A N46B20A 2.0L TYC 303-0065

A rear-view mirror must be installed on the car so that the driver can see and correctly assess what is happening behind the vehicle. This is an important design detail that directly affects the safety of road users, providing information about the situation from the back of the car.

Side mirrors are the simplest car sensors, which allow the driver to determine the presence of the vehicle following his car and the approximate distance to it without turning around. All cars at the factory are equipped with such products, since traffic safety on the road depends on their availability. The driver's view of what is happening behind his car allows the driver to simultaneously monitor the road ahead and behind.

The construction of the outside mirror

If we talk about the design features of these products, there is nothing complicated here. In fact, there is provided an outside mirror housing, an optical device, which is the main working part, as well as a position adjustment mechanism. Of course, depending on the make and model of the vehicle, the design of the TYC brand Outside Mirror directly depends.
