Chrome mirror caps

Are these just stick on over the painted mirrors, or do you ned to remove the originals? What Im trying to say is can you fit them at home
Got some vouchers from Fiat so need to spend them Will get some mats and the kick plates too.

Re: Chrome mirror caps

You can fit them yourself, you have to remove the old plastic caps first though. Apparently it's very easy.

Take a look at the kick plates on the Sport that are standard, I think they are about £35

Re: Chrome mirror caps

I think the "accessory" kick plates are plain & the ones fitted to the sport have "500" on them.

Re: Chrome mirror caps

Hello!

You can find installation instructions for the mirror covers from NF500 website!
You can find it from donwloads section under "Fiat 500 technical documents" and "Fiat 500 mirror fitting". At the moment there seems to be something wrong with the website, but it´s a PDF document you can download when the site is working normally.

The 500 logo plates sit on the inner plastic trim where the optional kick plates are on the metal sill. Yet to have seen both on the same car although I toyed with the idea myself.

Re: Chrome mirror caps

My wife managed to remove a mirror cap quite easily on a passing taxi. Don't recommend it though, but she is available if you struggle !!

Re: Chrome mirror caps

Yes some colours should be available for the reason stated above!

If anyone wants me to check one just throw either the colour code last 8 digits of the VIN or your Reg at me and I'll happily check it out for you/give you the part no. if its available
