Hey guys
Really want get folding mirrors installed. My question is, will OEM Chinese set from Aliexpress fit RHD cars. I know I will need difernt door switch for RHD car but mirrors should be same or am I wrong?
Also do I need replace door modules? I did watch installation guide video on YouTube, it was just mirror swap and some codding nothing mentioned about door modules.
Thanks

What a nightmare adding folding mirrors to car with lower spec control modules. Wish never had it fitted now.
Car Golf Variant 2014 RHD
Original Modules 5Q4 959392 passengers side, 5Q4 959393 drivers side.
So last week installed oem folding mirrors with door modules. Straight forward job bolting mirrors but modules are different story.
Modules I used passenger side 5Q0 959592, drivers side 5Q0959593. Mirrors worked straight away, everything worked fine, puddle lights, mirror deep etc. To my surprise rear electric windows refused to go down or up. So my first thought was, codding. Tried to code but unsuccessful, VCDS or OBD 11 won't communicate with rear window regulators at all. Errors I am getting "Databus missing message" in central electrics x2 and "No basic setting" in window regulators in each module. So after some research realised that another set of modules available, 5Q4 959592 ps side and 5Q4 959593 dr side. With exactly same software numbers like my original modules.
So today fitted new modules and first checked passenger side window rear and bingo it worked! Thought that it, issue resolved but to my surprise driver side rear window stil refusing to work.
Now I am getting only one fault in central electrics "Databus missing message" and "No basic setting" in window regulator only on passenger side module despite rear electric window on drivers side won't work.

Any clues what am I doing wrong?
