BYD SEALION 6 Side Mirror Replacement: Compatibility, Features and OE Numbers

You often do not need a complete mirror. On the SEALION 6, the glass, cap, turn-signal lamp and fold motor can usually be replaced on their own. What you must get right is the side and whether the housing carries a camera.

Which SEALION 6 mirror part do you actually need?

Start with the damage, not the catalogue. A cracked glass after a car park knock is a small, cheap repair. A mirror torn off in a side impact usually needs the full assembly, because the base, the wiring and the fold mechanism are often damaged too. Look closely before you order. Many mirrors that look destroyed only need a cap and a glass.

Does your mirror have a camera?

Trims with a 360° surround-view system carry a small camera in the underside of each mirror housing. Camera and non-camera mirrors are different parts. The housing shape, the wiring and the connector all change. Fitting a non-camera mirror to a camera-equipped car leaves a gap in the surround view and can trigger a fault message.

Quick check: look under the mirror. A small round lens means a camera is fitted. A clear photo of that area is enough for us to tell which housing you need.

Left or right, LHD or RHD?

Left and right mirrors are separate parts with their own OE numbers. Name the side as seen from the driver's seat, or simply say passenger side or driver side and tell us the steering side. The SEALION 6 is sold in both left-hand-drive and right-hand-drive markets. Mirror glass shape and some trim details can differ by market — we confirm by VIN.

Do SEAL U DM-i mirrors fit the SEALION 6?

In most cases, yes. The SEAL U DM-i is the European name for the same vehicle, and mirrors are shared with the SEAL U DM-i of the same period. Mirrors vary more with trim and camera fitment than with the model name. Model-year updates can still change a connector or a cap, so we check each mirror against the VIN before we quote.

How do OE numbers work for mirrors?

Each mirror version has its own OE number. The complete assembly has one number, and the glass, cap, lamp and motor each have their own. The number often changes with side, camera fitment, colour of the cap and production period. We do not publish part numbers, because a number taken from a list is the most common cause of a wrong part. Instead, we match the part to your car.

1. Send the VIN. It tells us the build, trim and market.
2. Say which side and which part is broken: glass, cap, lamp, motor or the whole unit.
3. Add a photo of the mirror's underside to confirm camera fitment.
4. If you can read a label or moulded number on the old part, send that too.

How is a replacement mirror shipped?

Mirrors are compact and light, so they ship well by courier or air freight. That makes them a good item for urgent single orders. If you are also ordering bumpers or panels after a collision, we can consolidate the mirror with those parts and ship everything together. We send photos of the parts and packing before dispatch.

Send us the VIN, the side and a photo of the mirror, and we will confirm the right part and its OE number.
