Replacing the External Rearview Mirror

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Side mirror

First, use the adjustment button to rotate the rearview mirror to the left (inward) to create enough space between the edge of the housing and the mirror itself. At this point, insert your fingers behind the mirror and pull it forward until it disconnects: then check if it is the heated version or not (look for the two connectors behind the mirror).
Connect the connectors, reposition the mirror on the appropriate support, aligning the mounting tabs, and press it until it snaps into place correctly.
