However, some markets (e.g., Europe with the “Assistance Package”) include a blind‑spot warning light in the mirror housing. Check your original cap – if there is a small cutout or transparent window on the outer edge, select “With Lane Assist”. Otherwise, select “Without”. Email us a photo if unsure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ5: Will these interfere with the folding mirrors or side cameras?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA: No. The R8’s folding mirror mechanism is unaffected.
