TRQ Side View Mirror w/Turn Signal Paint to Match Driver Side LH

In this review of the TRQ Side View Mirror w/Turn Signal for the driver side LH Legacy, the bottom line is straightforward: this is a practical, direct-fit replacement for owners who need a factory-style mirror without extra features. The review finds it best for drivers who want an OE-replacement that matches the vehicle finish and restores basic power and heating functions. Installation is aimed at DIYers comfortable with simple wiring and mounting, and the mirror delivers on fit and appearance while trading advanced features for straightforward reliability.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: The mirror is designed as an OE replacement so it installs using the original mounting points for a straightforward swap.
• Power Heated: Built-in heating preserves visibility in cold weather and defrosts the glass quicker than an unheated mirror.
• Paint to Match: The painted finish is intended to match factory color and maintain the vehicle's appearance after replacement.
• Vehicle Specific: Compatibility notes and reference numbers reduce the chance of ordering the wrong side or style for the 2018-19 Legacy.
• Robust Connectors: An 11-terminal connector and a 20.47 in wiring harness give the electrical reach and pinout needed for direct integration with the car's wiring.

Who It's For

The TRQ driver side mirror is for Subaru Legacy owners (2018-19) who need a near-OE replacement that restores mirror heating and electric adjustment without paying for extra factory options like blind spot indicators or automatic dimming. It suits DIY installers or independent shops that prefer an item that fits with minimal modifications.

It is not for drivers who require lane departure sensors, blind spot indicators, puddle lights or camera systems, or those who want integrated advanced safety electronics. If you need those features, look for a mirror that explicitly lists those systems.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good fit and factory appearance that most users report matches the original door mirror closely.
• Heated glass and electric adjustment restore essential functionality for winter driving and convenience.
• Clear installation path with vehicle-specific fitment and OE reference numbers to confirm compatibility.
• Reasonable value for an aftermarket OE-style replacement when a complete, featureless mirror is all that is required.

Cons

• Some customers report the mirror can shake at speed, which may bother drivers sensitive to vibration.
• Does not include blind spot indicator, lane departure features, puddle light or camera, limiting suitability for vehicles that require those options.

Specifications
