My Ride: 10 Melbourne Red X6M
I recently took my car in for service and ask them to replace my drivers side window switch assembly because it was peeling. He replaced it under warranty but when i got the car back, I noticed that now I have the button for the folding mirrors - but it doesn't work. Does that mean that I can retrofit the M5 mirrors with the folding option now?

I might be wrong but I suspect you don't have the power folding mirror feature pre-wired. If that is the case, you will have to do a lot of retro wiring to get it working. Bottom line is: Your dealer ordered you the wrong part and installed it! Roveractive sells the same piece on eBay. Have a look:

P.S. Have a look at this:
