How, when you mount the mirror glass, make sure you have the passenger side housing mounted in place before attaching the glass for that side. As I did not do this and when adjusting the glass for use it did not have room to be in the proper position and the spacing was a little off around the glass' edge.( The passenger side glass is usually angled in more then the driver side.)
Pm me if you have any questions.

Also, hate to tell you Pingy, but the kid DID crash the car already. He had a thread about it, saying he "lost control" of his M5 at 40 mph. Yet he felt he was somehow qualified to drive 140 kph?

I was wondering where my post went.
