MITSUBA OEM Quality Standards
MITSUBA is a leading Japanese automotive components manufacturer and an established OEM supplier to Subaru and other major Japanese vehicle brands. OEM specification door mirror assemblies from MITSUBA are built to the precise dimensional, electrical and functional standards defined by Subaru’s engineering requirements — ensuring that the replacement unit integrates seamlessly with the vehicle’s existing mirror control, heating and wiring systems without the adaptation or reliability concerns associated with aftermarket alternatives.
A genuine OEM subaru side mirror replacement maintains all the functional features of the original unit — including the mirror glass adjustment motor, heating element (where specified), wiring coupler configuration and mounting bracket geometry — to OEM tolerance. This level of precision is not consistently achievable with aftermarket mirror assemblies where dimensional and electrical tolerances may vary from the vehicle manufacturer’s specification.
This unit has been tested in Japan before removal — confirming electrical and functional integrity prior to export. JDM sourced components of this type are removed from vehicles retired under Japan’s domestic vehicle inspection system, typically at relatively low mileage and in well-maintained condition.

Fitment Verification Guide
To confirm correct fitment before purchase, follow this verification sequence:
- Match the model number first — locate the MITSUBA model designation on your existing mirror and confirm it matches VB10
- Confirm chassis code — check your vehicle’s chassis plate and compare against the compatibility list
- Verify right/left side — this unit is right side only. Reference the product photos to confirm orientation before ordering
- Check wiring connector — reference the coupler photos showing both top and bottom rows of the connector. Your vehicle’s coupler must match before ordering
Note: The model numbers for mirrors are the same on both left and right sides. If the designation on one side is damaged or difficult to read, it can be cross-referenced against the opposite unit.
Wiring and Connector Information
The MITSUBA VB10 subaru side mirror cover replacement unit uses the standard multi-pin coupler configuration appropriate to this chassis series. The wiring connector accommodates the mirror motor control circuit and heating element circuit as fitted to GH, GE, WRX GV and GR series vehicles.
Before ordering, reference the product photos showing both top and bottom rows of the coupler in detail. The coupler pin count and layout must match your vehicle’s existing connector. If the wiring configuration on your vehicle differs from the photos — which may occur due to market-specific or option-specific variations — consult a qualified Subaru technician before proceeding.

FAQ
Is this a genuine subaru side mirror or aftermarket? This is a genuine OEM subaru side mirror manufactured by MITSUBA — Subaru’s original equipment mirror supplier for the Impreza GH, GE, WRX GV and GR chassis series. It is not an aftermarket reproduction. MITSUBA VB10 units are built to Subaru’s OEM dimensional, electrical and functional specifications — ensuring full compatibility with existing mirror control and wiring systems without the fitment or reliability concerns of aftermarket alternatives.
What does subaru side mirror replacement involve for GH and GE chassis? Subaru side mirror replacement on GH and GE chassis involves removing the door trim panel to access the mounting bolts and wiring harness connector, disconnecting the existing coupler and unbolting the mirror assembly. The MITSUBA VB10 replacement unit mounts directly to the existing door aperture and connects via the standard multi-pin coupler. A qualified Subaru technician can complete this replacement. Always disconnect the vehicle battery before beginning any electrical component replacement.
Does this mirror cover a subaru side mirror cover replacement as well? This listing is for the complete door mirror assembly — including the mirror glass, housing, motor assembly and wiring coupler. It is not a mirror cover or cap only. If you require only a subaru side mirror cover replacement — the outer plastic housing without the internal components — this is a different product. This unit provides full OEM assembly replacement for the complete mirror system.
How do I verify this mirror fits my Impreza? Locate the MITSUBA model number on your existing mirror unit and confirm it matches VB10. Then verify your vehicle’s chassis code against the compatibility list — GH, GE, GVB, GVF and GRF chassis designations are covered. Confirm the right-side orientation and check the wiring coupler photos to confirm your connector matches. If uncertain, consult a qualified Subaru specialist with your vehicle’s chassis identification details.
What condition is this JDM door mirror in? This is a fresh import from Japan, tested for function before removal. JDM sourced components are removed from vehicles retired under Japan’s domestic inspection regulations — typically at low mileage and in well-maintained condition. Pre-removal testing confirms electrical and functional integrity before export. All condition details and wiring coupler configuration are documented in the product photos — review all images before purchasing.
