Thats a good price. I saw them on Aliexpress for that sort of price but I was too impatient to wait. I basically paid £60 for next day delivery

I see a lot of these ebay versions have a design that's different from the actual OEM ones. Here's photo of an X6M that is kind of softly pointed backwards and has a sort of a signature dent line going out on the front cap, curving away from the car.

If I were to change the mirror caps into something M style looking (and I am tempted to, because all these photos look great to me, regardless of design), I'd definitely try finding something closer to OEM...just my 2c.

The mirror btw x3 x5 x6 and x7 is the same. I got OEM x3m caps and rings and they fit perfectly. 5 min to swap them. I got the eBay once first and didn't like how they look not finish from driver view.

Sorry for the late reply - just seen this!

Does this retrofit work for those with the 360° camera and turn signal housing in our OEM mirrors?

Of course.
Currently the best quality CF cover is only BMW M Performance one. They are listed at $1400/side.
OEM color, I just need to send it out to get it painted.
I'll PM you the link to may website since I can't share my website link directly per forum policy.

So, I attempted to change the mirror caps as everyone has instructed to do so here (pry the glass off, push the clips out, etc). I tried 3 times and couldn't get the glass off, and every time I felt like the risk of breaking the glass and/or f-ing up some of the wires behind the glass was going to happen.

Came across this video for the last gen X5, and process is the EXACT same on the G05, and I had the mirror cap off in 30 sec (NO MIRROR REMOVAL NEEDED).



Just figured I'd share as so many people have posted about how the F'd up trying to remove the glass. You don't need to (so hopefully this process gains more traction and helps folks out).

Hi. I caught my left hand side wing mirror on my x5 G05 and it’s damaged the outer part. I think it’s called the supporting ring. My local mechanic said it would be very hard to just replace this ring as the mirror glass could easily break when trying to dismantle the mirror. I’ve found someone with a complete wing mirror from an f15. Would this fit? Grateful for any advice. Thanks!
