Rear View Mirror - Is this one compatible with a B5?

[diaftia]

Does anyone know if an OEM 05-08 AUDI s4 a4 a6 Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror will fit our B5's?

Here is a picture of the mount:



Thanks,

Give it 3-5 days to calibrate.....I thought mine was broken (showing the wrong directions), but after a few days it started working perfectly

That's awesome, I was disapointed that ours didn't come with one stock. I am pretty good with directions and don't have a GPS yet and would love to know what direction I am in when in an unknown area.

Nice, looks like something ill have to look for my next time in the junk yard. I never knew our cars had auto dimming mirrors until my friend told me. Guess mine didnt work.

Yeah and just in case you didn't know the sensor in the rear view mirror is the same sensor that is in charge of dimming the side mirrors too.

Interesting. Yours is a little different than mine. This one came off an A6 but I have seen the S4's have the same one too. Mine has a power button and the compass is not in a black box. When its off it doesn't even look like it has a compass.

For anyone that needs to do it, the compass needs to be set to the zone you are in. Here are the instructions on how to do it:
