After watching this, I immediately went online and ordered heated mirrors to replace. Finally received it a week later. Impatiently I went straight to pull off the old mirror. Lo and behold, There were already heated mirrors on the car, I never knew because there is no separate button to operate them. They work with the rear defroster button. 22 euro down the drain. :) Well not really. I replaced them with the new ones anyway. :D

Hey! Hope you're keeping well and safe. Been binge watching your videos, even though I don't own a Corsa D. Just nice to see how things are done. You are certainly knowledgeable and your Corsa must be the most maintained out there!

Hi Tom, Thanx for the amazingly instructing video! I've just completed this project and I must say the mirrors get nicely warm 😍 Putting the door back on was indeed a nightmare for one person 😅 Anyways, cheers again for your videos. I love them! Greets, John

you could just use the window motor ground wire already in the door and splice the ground into it, saving one less wire to run through the connectors.

Hello Tom, I watch your videos and are very very helpful , you do a nice job. I just finish install on my corsa D front fog lights and cruise control. The only thing wich i can’t do it with Opcom is to do the setup , apparently don’t show me all that options when try to change variant configuration. The cruise control i setup already on engine module , but i can’t on Body and Instrument. Were do you think can be the problem? Maybe Opcom? Thanks

Your crimping job was unfortunately not 100 % correct. The seal/gasket for the connector around the cable has to be crimped with the cable onto the connector. Each crimp contact has two different sized tabs which grabs the outer cable insulation and the other one grabs the striped copper cable for conducting the current. The round seal/gasket should be crimped onto the bigger tab which would hold the outer cable insulation when you do not use a seal/gasket. Anyway nice job!! I will do the same thing on my corsa d in the summer. Also I will fitting heated seats, dimming mirror, rain sensor, new interior lamp, heated steering wheel, maybe rear speakers, and pre wiring fog lights, park pilot... Everything as original as possible... Thinking about filming videos about it in German.
