ABAKUS 048-05-861 Side indicator Left Front, Exterior Mirror, LED

This product (ABAKUS 048-05-861 Side indicator) is a good 'replacement' for the original. The price is good too. Delivery was faster than expected, but not outstanding (and no options).However:(1) The electrical connector could not be fully inserted. Some investigation and then significant force (by hand), revealed plastic colliding. I would not recommend it, but I 'trimmed' the plug (of the car), just enought to enable the connector to be wedged in place, and importantly, for the latch to engage!!(2) The package arrived very crumpled to less than halve it's height in places. And partially open. This was mostly due to the very light-weight box. But also due to ppor handling by the courier (E formerly H). Also, the product was not wrapped at all. It sat on some paper 'filler' within the box. Despite all that, it did function correctly.If you're willing to 'tinker' and 'test', this is a great product. Forget it if you want a simple plug n play (plug-in) replacement item. At least on a VW Polo mark IV 2007.
