Hopefully this is not a re-post, but it looks like there is a source for (somewhat) reasonably priced replica M5 mirrors. I saw this on eBay, and it looks like this seller has at least about 6 sets available. From the description it sounds like they don't fold, but they have the space for the puddle lights. It says you use the oem motor and wiring, so I assume the reverse tilt down and other standard functions will still work. It says the glasses are anti-glare and anti-fog, but I doubt that means elctrochromatic, but not sure... Oh yeah, they're also carbon fibre on the bottom.

The price is $615 plus $35 shipping to the US (from China).
I haven't ordered as I'm working on some other mods first, but hopefully this is a reliable vendor for the mod that a bunch of people seem to be waiting for...
edit: by the way, I am not affiliated with this seller and have no idea if they are actually any good, just giving the heads up since I came across them on ebay...

Anyway, if you can find USED M5 mirrors, pay half that.

I think that they were actually quite a bit less, i.e., around $975 USD.
