Abstract
A rearview mirror for motor vehicles has a housing and a mirror assembly pivotably supported in the housing. A first Bowden cable arrangement and a second Bowden cable arrangement are connected to the mirror assembly for pivoting the mirror asembly. The first and second Bowden cable arrangements are actuatable so as to act alternatively in a same direction and in opposite directions on the mirror assembly. The first and second Bowden cable arrangements each have a sleeve and a cable enclosed by the sleeve. The cable is pressure-resistant and pull-resistant and is guided without play in the sleeve.
