U can kinda get an idea here: https://5series.net/forums/index.php?showto...mirror+retrofit
M5 Idrive knob SOLD!!
M5 Idrive knob SOLD!!
I know for a fact my 2004 530i mirrors can do the following and/or have these characteristics:
- Auto Folding (there is a button to do this though, not automatic, but factory nevertheless)
- Reverse Dip (When I hit reverse my passenger's mirror goes down), actually there's a switch with which I can choose left or right mirror to dip)
- LED puddle lamps (YES, on both mirrors)
- Heated *(this, I don't know for sure, how can I check?)
What do you guys suggest?, it seems the only thing my car doesn't have is heated mirrors (it may have it, I'm not sure), if I transfer the ECU from my mirros to the M5s, all these options will still exist, correct?

These mirrors are very sweet & i am half tempted to buy them & the M-tech as they are minty fresh. John is hyper. i mean HYPER anal about the condition of his stuff. He's even sending the spoiler out for a repaint before dropping it off at my house. I was like "who cares" he said he wouldn't feel right knowing there was ant minor imperfections that he'd see on a regular basis. Now that's a upstanding guy.
