A Genuinely Useful Explanation Worth Knowing About the Toggle Switch — Toyota C-HR Wing Mirror
If auto-folding on locking has stopped working but the mirrors still fold manually, this is genuinely worth understanding: the mirror control toggle switch commonly has three distinct positions. Fully out in one direction keeps the mirrors extended permanently. The middle, neutral position is specifically what enables auto-fold when the car is locked. Fully in the other direction keeps the mirrors folded permanently. Many owners genuinely don't realise this middle position is required specifically for auto-fold to work at all.
It's also worth knowing that if only one side has stopped folding while the other works perfectly, this points toward a fault isolated to that specific side rather than anything affecting the shared locking system.
Toyota C-HR Wing Mirror: More Electronics Hiding Inside Than Most People Realise
What looks like a simple glass-and-plastic assembly on the outside is often anything but on the Toyota C-HR: its wing mirrors typically house folding motors, heating elements, indicator lights, and sometimes blind-spot sensors, so a "faulty mirror" isn't really one specific fault.

Toyota C-HR Wing Mirror: Driver's Side or Passenger Side? Sorting Out the Terminology
One thing worth getting right before you buy a Toyota C-HR wing mirror: terminology for left and right isn't applied consistently across UK retailers and parts catalogues, which trips up plenty of buyers. On a right-hand-drive UK car, the convention runs like this:
- Driver's side = right-hand (RH) = offside (OS) — the side closest to the centre of the road.
- Passenger side = left-hand (LH) = nearside (NS) — the side closest to the kerb.
Part listings may use any of these terms interchangeably — "RH mirror," "offside mirror," and "driver's side mirror" all refer to the same physical part on a UK-spec C-HR. Double-check which convention your supplier is using before ordering, since a mix-up here is one of the most common reasons the wrong mirror turns up.
Toyota C-HR Wing Mirror: What It Does
Beyond the obvious job of rear visibility, modern wing mirrors on higher trims of the C-HR often integrate turn signal repeaters, puddle lights, heating elements to clear condensation, and power-fold motors for tight parking spaces. Higher-spec versions may also house blind-spot monitoring sensors, making them considerably more expensive to replace than a basic mirror.
