The Parts Catalogue suggests you're in luck with a straight swap of LH Powerfold Door Mirror from X300 to X308

As far as I can recall from my X308, the top trim panel has to come off which involves removing the veneer trim.

Here's the JTIS sections covering the procedure:

JTIS - X308 Door Mirror.pdf

JTIS - X308 Door Trim Veneer Panel.pdf

JTIS - X308 Door Trim Panel.pdf

You should only need the first two but I've included the section on removing the door trim panel as you'll be lucky if you never need to take this off at some time during your ownership!

Default door mirror job done

thanks GGG changed door mirror easy job even for an old git like me, i noticed there are more wires on the 308 than the 300 on connecter but the mirror ajusts up,down and left to right. pos the other wires are for the fold action but did not have power fold mirrors anyway, thanks again

Good news.

I've added 'RESOLVED' to your thread title to help anyone searching for the door mirror interchangeability answer in future.
