Paqngo Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Greetings Does anybody own or have knowledge of where I may get electronic folding wing mirrors in silver for my 2001 E46 M3 coupe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamWeaver Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Perform a search on eBay using the keyword "E46 M3 breaking", if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VWDaveBMW Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Hopefully, the price of these mirrors will be lower than that of the M6 mirrors. 🤣🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paqngo Posted June 25 Author Share Posted June 25 I had been searching for a year, but without any success...As a last option, I am considering myself opening them up and replacing the internal components.What is your opinion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistral Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Affirmative, it is indeed possible to do this task, and BMW does provide mirror actuators for sale. These actuators are handed, meaning they have specific versions for the left and right sides of the vehicle. Here are the corresponding component numbers:https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=BL92-EUR-04-2003-E46-BMW-M3&diagId=51_4233 These items are exclusive to the M3-M5 models and have a price of £240 apiece.

VWDaveBMW Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 In the past, I have successfully corrected similar issues on several vehicle models, however I have not specifically worked on a BMW. Therefore, I cannot definitively confirm whether the repair can be performed on a BMW, although I would be astonished if it were impossible.

Mistral Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Indeed, M components have a significant markup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
