If you followed my diy http://forums.e60.net/index.php?show...54860&hl=rsyed, the "expert" would have known that one needs to disconnect the batteries

As a non-expert, I needed 3 hours and this included an hour taking teh mirrors apart to migrate the ECUs...

Just installed the M5 mirrors. The guy who did this for me was aprox. 4 hours working. It was a hell of job he said. But i'm glad. Everything is working. One litte problem. The airbag signal popped up, so i have to reset the computer. Here are pics before and after. Enjoy
is that an LCI? if so, were you able to get all of bells & whistles to work? i see that auto fold is workin' properly!

congrats, looks awesome!
