Not the same as original.

This is not the same mirror as the original. Although the fit is very snug and the clarity is excellent, this mirror shows a real image, while the original once shows a wide-angle image to include more objects, allowing you to see your surroundings better (about 20% more). If you agree with that caveat, that's a lot, as it's a third of the price of the original.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Mostly ok, but...

this replacement worked like clockwork

After watching a YouTube video and learning how to replace a mirror, this replacement worked like clockwork. Took me a few minutes to take the old one off and put the new one on - no problem. I will say the quality of the mirror is good - not as durable as the original manufacturer part but a very affordable replacement that works well. So good that when Revane asked for my review I forgot it was broken and was replaced! I definitely recommend it.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • There are cons

Fits 2016 CR-V. Easy to install

Perfect fit for my 2016 CR-V. Super easy to install! literally took 2 minutes. It comes with instructions; follow them Insert the mirror from the top center, insert a flathead screwdriver between the white part of the bracket and the black part of the mirror, twist it a few times, and lift the screwdriver up. Jump out now. This mirror doesn't have the fancy blind spot curve in the glass like the factory mirror but honestly I'm glad as I've never liked it and I'm not used to it. I am satisfied…

  • New

  • Reliable

Fits 2016 CRV EXL.: Mirrors and parts

2016 CRV EXL. Perfect fit. The rear clip attaches to the mirror (not just the mirror, like when you bought the product before). . It doesn't come with a thaw option, but unless you buy a genuine part that costs hundreds, I honestly don't see anywhere that you get that feature. It took me about 5 minutes to install using a flathead screwdriver to ensure the clips are fully seated when fully seated. To be honest I can't tell the difference between the driver's side side mirror (original) and the…

Wrong model! on replacement wing mirror glass

I ordered this part to replace my passenger side mirror (RH) for my 2016 Honda CRV. After my research, the part was compatible and fit perfectly. The video showing how to replace the mirror seemed easy enough and I was initially very excited about my purchase... When the item arrived I was very disappointed. The part sent was clearly marked for a 2012-2013 model. I opened the box and tried to replace the part but it's a completely different size than what I need. I am very disappointed that I…

This part was identical to my original; no heater.

This part was identical to my original; no heating coil or anything, just the main mirror. I saw a 3 minute video on You Tube of a guy taking off a mirror with a butter knife and then installing a new $15 piece. My experience was the same as his. My Honda dealer and local trusted auto shop cost $200 to replace the passenger side mirror. I ordered this part from Revain for $15, watched this video and followed the instructions that came with the mirror. From the moment I started removing the…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Can be retrofitted

Installation tip / option and more product details

I just installed this mirror. I watched a few videos on YouTube, they were useful. In my particular situation, I replaced the driver's side mirror on a 2016 Honda CRV. I struggled for about 5 minutes to install this replacement mirror. I was concerned that I had bought the wrong mirror, or that there might be slight size differences between this mirror and the original pieces. As I kept trying to install this mirror, I decided to remove the thick, black, rectangular, resinous adhesive that was…

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Speed
