Thanks in advance for your help!

Guys, I am updating this and please learn from my mistake, the base that attaches to the car IS NOT the same on the M5 and M6, so unless I can buy the base and switch the rest of the mirror over then I will be selling these to a 5series guy

The M6 has teh same mirrors as the M5.
M5 mirrors fit on the non M E60, so I assume it is possible to fit the M mirrors on the regular 645i.

Yes it has been done by 645/650 several owners. Over on bimmerfest someone was trying to get a group buy, but I do not think it got anywhere.

Thanks again, I purchased some already prepainted that matches my car for less than $1000...

$1000 that's real cheap!
I'm not too sure about the M5 mirror, but what i know is you can install the M6 mirror on. The tough part is to do some wiring in order to have the lights working.

I think the M5 and M6 mirrors are selling for the same price, why bother the risk?

M6 mirrors fit but M5 I'm not sure, although the mirror is the same I think the base is different.
I'll check on my brothers M5

CanadaBat, what options do the mirrors support?
Could you please post the part numbers for the mirrors and the glass?

Did the existing wiring match the connectors on the new mirros?
