Pretty sure the caps themselves won't fit the F30, they look like an entirely different design. Fitting the entire mirror might be more feasible of an idea but not sure that'll work either.

I am waiting for an answer on this too. Willing to pay for the mirror even if it fits and wont cause problems.

No they definitely won't. They are entirely a different shape. Sorry. Looking at a mirror swap, and considering how much tech are in the mirrors nowadays, you may be better off trading in your car!
