Looking to get some EK9 folding mirrors and found a set but the guy said the relay is built into the switch, do u get versions like that?

I had the same problem. Needing wing mirrors. My EK9 was completely stripped bare and I could not find any location for the mystery relay. I spoke with Livvy & Paul who broke a few cars for parts and they never ever found one. Lastly, gramsn1 (Sam) searched for me and came up with nothing. He sent me a set of mirrors and a switch, I plugged them into my car and like magic they functioned correctly! Very strange. Gut feeling is the relay must be built into the switch (I've tried 2 different units from pre-facelift and facelift) or its built into the mirrors. Unfortunately I have not had a chance to disassemble the units to take a look inside. In my experience I would suggest all of the Internet talk about the mystery window relay is in reference to the DC2. I had posted on numerous forums asking for a location of the relay on an EK9 chassis but never received any positive comments.
Well that's my experience, hope it helps!
Is ur ek9 a 98-00 spec? Because my seller told me those are the years that has a built in relay on the switch. I guess this solves the mystery lol. Thanks bro!
i been trying to wire my and no luck im trying another switch but i think i got some wires wrong can you help me out i got a 99 hatch dx model i change my floor & doors harness with a em1
The side mirrors are the same for all years.
99-00 has built in relay in the switch, bigger and on the left with a mirror icon.
96-98 has separate relay, and the switch is different that has it on the other side and says RETRACT.
