Inget problem!

Do make a point of telling the tech or service manager that you would like them to see if the puddle lights will be operational!

Damn very very nice Patrick

Your //M5 mirrors are fully loaded:

AUTODIMMING glass only the glass cost approximate 320 Euros for 1 pices
AUTOFOLDING High quality BMW Quality the best there is
PUDDELE LED LIGHTS ont bottom
AUTO DIP
MEMORY (Reverse Tilting)
Heated

The replica's did no have autofold and NO autodimming glass, that way you have make a good deal BMW OEM is always better than every Replica
Okay it cost a litelle bit more but you can see that the quality and the options are fully loaded.

Good luck man.

For the E63 and E64 drivers ive got the last pair bmw genuine oem //M6 mirrors for pre 9-2005 cars and one pair for post 9-2005 cars these are the last pairs, not available any more for me. price is 850 euros including shipping worldwide.

Any Time 530dA

Now you are just missing the cf rear diffuse. I have called my contact in Munich and it is not available in any BMW Niederlassung around Germany and neither Italy. I tried all I could to find it.

Thank you Marco!

Your former and my current car do look like they are related to each other!

And thanks for checking on the CF diffuser. If you can't find one, then I am officially out of luck.

I had a meeting yesterday afternoon that allowed me to drive on the E18 "motorway" to Helsinki and back, and the road was clear of snow, slush, etc. So, for the first time since getting the mirrors installed, I was able to drive at speeds up to 150km/h.

I did not notice any noise, whistling or really anything different from the original mirrors. No difference IMHO.

As far as visibility goes, there is some difference due to the smaller size of the glass. However, it took me about 5 minutes to get used to that.

I will add that the puddle light feature is really nice in the dark, and we have a lot of that here right now.

Thanks!

The ACS rear roof spoiler is going on the car today.

Due to the cold weather here, I won't get the car back until Wednesday morning. I can't wait!
