DIY: Side mirrors - Euro Glass swap
Hey guys,
I decided to install Euro mirrors today, and took some pictures. With EU mirror glass the " blind spot " is not blind anymore because the outer portion of the glass is curved a helps to see things better. Big props to Andrew(phattbam) for supplying me with euro mirror glass ! EU mirror glass part# LT 51168041951 RT 51168041952 This is the only one tool that you need US / EU mirror glass side by side EU US 1. You need to adjust your mirror all the way to the right on one side and to the left on the other so you have a gap there to put you prying tool. 2. Press on the glass with a very light pressure and it should pop right off ... 3. Disconnect the power and this should be it 4. Clean the inside of the housing and snap in your new Euro mirror glass.

Tool
Sure, or just a part number or description of the set. I looked though the BMW tools on the Sir Tool website but didn't see it. Thanks.

I had those euro wide angle mirrors on my E46M3. I loved them.
If you don't mind me asking, how much did you have to pay to get those 2 heated/auto-dim wide angle euro mirrors? and.. is there anyway to buy one more set?

Why do you need two? The right mirror is already wide angle.
