Just a quickie to show the replacement indicators that I've just fitted to the County Durham Foodbank's VW Sharan pool car (or ad-hoc delivery van with windows...).

Car: VW Sharan SE 140 2.0TDi, 2008MY. Originally fitted with clear/silver indicators that have a single bright orange LED at the outer end. Passenger side (UK) had failed in an odd way (was only working very faintly), most likey due to a little bit of water getting past a damaged seal on the outermost end of the unit.

Voltages at the connector plug in the door mirror were okay, though that side had a slightly flaky connection, which I tightened up, but that took several goes to make sure the spade connectors both went securely into the sockets.

New units are smoked glass so the mirror looks black all the width across the lower edge, but more obvious tthat the originals.

The price varies, but for about £14-15 for the pair, plus a T10 Torx key and plastic panel pry bar, they have to be worth a go! If you want to see if they fit your VW, here's the link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284476761985
