BMW F20 Power Folding Mirrors Retrofit - hugo325 - 21-10-2019
Hello everyone,
I wish to do a retrofit to have mirrors folding electrically.
I have a BMW F20 ECE (production data 11/2011), I currently have defrost and control of the electrical position but I do not have the option S430.
First question, is it possible to do this on my model ?
Second question, if so, is it difficult? (for info I already do the retrofit HU_ENTRY -> HU_NBT2, reverse camera and BKOMKI -> KOMBI).
I have already started a little searching on the web.
I wanted to know if the easiest way is not to simply buy the module with the engine to integrate in the rearview mirror ? Or you have to buy the complete mirror directly (unfortunately expensive) ?
The electrical wiring will look like this:
I do not know if I need to add cables to the mirror or not.
How to know the type of connection without dismounting ? LIN bus or signal lines ?
6 pin mirror = basic, 5 pin mirror = Folding. So I think mine is a Basic mirror ?
Thank you in advance for the information.
Best regards, Hugo

hello in my bmw f31 I made retrofit of folding mirrors. The only thing I did that I saw in another forum was in the driver's window and mirrors module.
Pin 7 with Pin 1 (ground)
Pin 8 with Pin 2 (Lin Bus)
Pin 9 with Pin 10 (power)

It's hard to find mirrors F20 5 pins
Do you have any tips on finding one ? On Ebay I do not have much

Do you know if it is possible to mount rear view mirrors from a driver's car on the right side of a driver's car on the left side? Does the command still work?
