Long shoot question, just like you I don't have paddle lights but I wonder if it's possible to hardwire the paddle light to say the door light on the bottom? Also I wonder how the 2-wire auto fold work are those 2 just signal wires or like reversible +/-?
Did you order the pre or post-9/05 in the group buy for your LCI conversion? Based on the 3-wire in it's a post-9/05, right?

* if you have no auto fold, you have no 2 wires going from your old ECU (in your current mirrors), which means you have no wires to cut, and there is no way you can connect the 2 wires going from the m5 auto fold to the old ecu.
* same applies for the paddle lights.
I have ordered the post 9/05 from the group buy for lci conversion..

Sorry I have been away for a while. Yes that is indeed the motor you need to replace, although your M5 mirror motor looks different than mine did. But I think that your current motor fits in that spot?

regarding the cables, was my assumption right. I cut the wires ( 2 for the paddle lights, 2 for the autofold, 4 for the ec+heated mirros.) from the current ECU and then wire it to my new LCI ECU - is that right? depending on the options, i might not have 8 but less cables...
