Heated Mirror Glass Wiring
 
Dumb question here (because I wasn't paying attention):

My driver's side mirror on my 2004 545i is cracked. I removed the mirror glass to verify fitment of a non-auto dimming replacement glass (which I ordered by accident), and in the process I removed the two wires (brown and black) to the mirror for the heating element. However, I don't recall which wire goes to which stud. I tried removing the passenger mirror, but it's a mirror image and I didn't know if the wiring was mirrored or the same.

Anybody ever replace their driver's side mirror glass and know which wire goes to which?

It wont matter, they are for the heater resistance in the mirror. Its just important both are plugged in.

OK. I thought that might be the case. Thank you.
