MG MGF Technical - Electric Mirrors

I have a mgtf with manual mirrors. Can I fit electric mirrors? I know the switches are not there, but is the wiring loom (as per the HRW)for the switches and mirrors?

Yours is the TF115, which has the same door mirror arrangement as the older MGF with manual mirrors. I don't know whether you have a wiring harness already in situ, waiting to be used, but other wise, fitting electric mirrors is a straightforward job - direct swap.

I am pretty sure that there are on-line guides somewhere for exactly this task, as it is a well-troden path for many MGF owners.

Good luck, and do let us know how you get on :o)

Thanks for that Rob, found an on-line guide and it looks like wiring is in place. Just need to save up for a pair of mirrors and a control joy stick.

I saw that - bargain, particularly if they have your colour in stock. :o)
