It is possible, however, be careful when you purchase your steering wheel there are different fitments for production date before 05 and after. PM member my530i for the retrofit kit to allow the paddle shifters to work.

Do you guys think it is difficult to do the mirror tilting as a retrofit? (without having to fit memory seats)

I thought that the Driver's seat has two memory settings as a part of standard equipment, at least in the US. It will help if you can provide your location.
