This genuine OEM Kia inner passenger cabin rear view mirror assembly mounts directly onto the factory upper windshield glass wedge bracket base. Sourced from original minivan cockpit layouts, this item features a manual day/night anti-glare thumb dipping lever mechanism to quickly deflect bright trailing headlight beams over dark highway commutes. Replacing a loose, cloudy, discolored, or detached central glass assembly restores clean rearward blind-spot visibility metrics and stops annoying mounting ball pivot vibrations on bumpy roads.

This genuine factory safety component is engineered to slide into the front windshield camera brackets of the fourth-generation crossover platforms detailed below:
- Kia Sedona / Carnival MK1 Generations (GQ Chassis Facelift Layout Runs): LX, EX, and premium leather-trimmed multi-passenger configurations running 2.5L V6, 3.5L Sigma V6 petrol, or 2.9L CRDi turbodiesel powertrain configurations (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005)
- Note on 2006 Production Overlaps: This item is engineered specifically for vehicles rolling off assembly lines still utilizing the original first-generation GQ body profile. It will not adapt or clip correctly to completely redesigned late-2006 VQ generation chassis dashboards.
- Removal Precaution: To extract your damaged mirror from the glass base without accidentally shattering or fracturing the laminated windshield layout lines, slide the mounting foot vertically upward parallel to the glass incline angle. Avoid pulling or twisting the mirror assembly outward forcefully perpendicular to the windscreen face, as this can easily rip away a chunk of the underlying safety glass.
- Pivot Friction Adjustment Note: Internal friction sockets naturally loosen over years of frequent adjustment cycles, leading to mirrors that droop under heavy cabin vibrations. Before running a replacement mirror, ensure your windshield wedge button is free of grease or glass cleaner residue. Slide the mounting base completely down until it drops over the internal retention detent tab with an audible click.
- Used Cosmetic Condition Note: Sourced from an accident-free, clean salvage donor car interior layout, this mirror assembly has been thoroughly hand-cleaned, surface detailed, and pivot checked. The dipping mechanism levers forward and backward tightly with a crisp snap, the housing has no severe sun fade cracks, and the mirror glass pane surface runs 100% free of clouding or heavy pitting scuffs. Expect typical minor storage dust; the bonded windshield metal mounting button piece is not included.
