2005 side mirrors

They will fit but if you want to use the puddle light feature you'll have to tap into the door lights. I did a how to on this:

Also, the drivers side mirror has a dimming feature like the rear view mirror. I have yet to tap into that feature.
 
I changed my mirrors before from 00 to 03 so that they could fold - you need that in the city. What I couldn't figure out then is what you just mentioned. What exactly is the puddle light??
 
the puddle light is the light that turns on when you lock/unlock your doors - it is designed to light up the door to enable you to find the keyhole

i added puddle lights to my 01 - the article is in the tech section under 'M3 style mirrors....
 
Okay, now I see. Too bad I already changed my mirrors. I definitely would have put those on. Had an excuse the first time since some jerk had side-swiped my mirror off. The dealership had only charged me $30 to paint both.
