Updated Mirrors Install Help
I am trying to install the facelifted mirrors on my E55. I thought they would be a direct swap, but am having a hard time installing them. Can anyone that has done this mod please share their experience. Thanks.

Yeah I had the same problem. Drilling will be required and it is a PITA. I drilled new holes to line up the prongs on the new mirrors then I secured them on the inside door panel using fender washers, small washers, lock washers, and 5 or 6mm Allen head bolts.

If you need any additional help lmk, but it will probably take about 3 to 4 hours.

What was the cost to do this?
Do you have to order all the parts individually or is there a kit? Please let me know what I would be looking at for parts.

Thanks

There are no kits for the entire assembly, the only way to get them is used from eBay or wherever.

They are plug and play, major pain to install though.
