Wiring for Porsche mirrors, to fit stock Audi Connector

[prosty]

I've just removed the stock connector from my Audis side mirrors. The connector looks like this with all its cables:



Cables colors are:
White, Red , White/Brown, Black, Brown ( 5 cables total)

This is an image of the Porsche cables:



Cables colors are:
Black, Brown, Blue, White, Purple, Brown, Red, Purple (8 cables total)

These mirrors are from a Porsche 993.
I can't seem to find any wiring diagram for these mirrors. I've got this for the audi connector and RS2 mirrors:

But as you can see, this is not the same colors as I have, and there are 2 purple wires here too on the Porsche mirrors.

Has anyone done this or does anyone know which cable goes to which?

Help is much appreciated

Prosty, how are you mounting these cup mirrors on the avant door. Have you some bases that are ok to fit cup mirrors to avant doors ? People always say only RS2 mirrors fit as you cant get the bases seperately ?

[prosty]

These mirrors are 993 and they fit perfectly to the car without any modifications. I bought them from quattro_king here on the forum. Haven't got ahold of him yet with instructions for the cables though. Otherwise great deal

Any chance of a couple of pictures to show ok fit to the door with the porsche bases Prosty ? Would be appreciated by a few of us on here.

Having recently fitted the RS2 mirrors and seen the 993 mirror bases i'd like to see proof of them being a perfect fit.

Eh, what's the best way to wire up the RS2 mirrors? I foolishly told Tim not to worry I'd wire them up as he'd not got round to it.

Do i need to pull 'em off the car or should i remove door cards to connect... ?

I do remember finding a quide as to what connects to what, sure I can find it again, but not quite sure where to start. Any pics of the install would be nice

Cheers

Jamo:



Can we please continue with the threads topic now

Note that that photo doesn't look good, and the rubber base gasket isn't fitted. But It looks perfect.


Ross: Check the link that I added in the first post of this thread. If you're too lazy. Read this:

I'll post some more pictures later, the faster you help me with the wiring , the faster I can assemble them on the car !

[prosty]

Got it!

The purple wires where only on the right mirror, probably from a RHD car. So I just ignored the purple wires and fitted the connectors without any hassle. Later today I'll be going out to try the fitting to the car hopefully the cables aren't too long

"I'll post some more pictures later"....

Hey Prosty ! We are still waiting for those pix! Whats up?

[prosty]

HEHE I'll go back to the garage later, I had to install a navigation on my SAAB yesterday so I didn't have any free time over for the Audi. I'll take some more tonight, but here are some from the first assembly:





Haven't fitted the right one yet. Will do that tonight (if nothing else pops up)

[panzerwagen]

Hmmm they do look nice and....

fit perfectly but if some of you remember, didn''t quattro king say he was selling these things WITH THE PROPER GASKETS AND ADAPTERS? If so that means that these mirrors were really RS2 mirrors andf not Porsches.
Anybody confirm that? Quatro King?

Right guys, this is totally off-topic, but :

Jamo - we need some of those stickers currently featured on your signature...!
are they an S2forum special order???!

[prosty]

These are stock 993 mirrors, no special adapters for Audi.Only a rubber gasket between the foot and the door.
