Replacing the side mirror glass on a BMW E60 (5 Series)

Not the most professional video, but give me a thumbs-up if you found it at all helpful. Was thinking of making other videos of any minor repairs I make on the car (like the squeak coming from under the hood by the dashboard....).
This is a video showing how easy it is to replace the side mirror glass on a BMW E60 (same as E61); in this case a 2008 523i. My iPhone stopped right at the end, but you get the point.
I was surprised that these mirrors become "stained" over time - haven't had that happen with any other cars that I have owned - but then I realized that the heating element inside them is constantly on, so perhaps that explains it.

Your a life saver. My driver side mirror just shattered today hit a cone by accident cause some idiot swerved into my lane. Come just smacked my mirror luckily nothing else but thank u i just ordered a mirror and I’m gonna do it myself. BMW charge a arm and a leg now a days lol.

[@MrOutrage22]

I’m amazed at the number of people who watch this video! You’re right - it’s so easy to replace it, and so cheap for an after market mirror… it’s amazing what the dealership gets away with charging.

Dude literally same exact thing happened to my 7 series

[@jchugani]

Thank you. This was easy peasy and was one of the easiest things I have done on my 5 series...although it looks daunting at first. Took less than 5 minutes. Got the mirror exactly same to that of yours. Its comes from East Europe and takes a few weeks to get to the US. The vendor is highly responsive to any questions I sent to them.

[@AmandaCardona]

Jagdish Chugani hi , I have a 535iS 2012 , May I please ask for a number / website to order them ? Please ,

[@williamdekruger2319]

Do you have a link or website? Get the replacement mirror? Thank you

[@Hartez2]

What about the connector that is on the original backing plate of the mirror? Did you get rid of it or what? I wonder what it's for cause there is no pin connector on the new mirror glass.

[@MrOutrage22]

Sorry, just saw your message... if there is no pin connector on the new glass, then it's either the wrong glass for a car with heated glass, or you've only purchased the glass... in which case I don't know how you would go about replacing just the glass (and presumably just attaching it to the old frame).

Hello It is a chromatic ?

[@Converxful]

Greetings from Czech Republic, where did you got this? :D

[@MrOutrage22]

It was a while ago, but I ordered it on automedik.cz and picked it up at their store at Dělnická 5, Praha 7

[@Converxful]

@@MrOutrage22 Yeah I saw this shop, thank you, they still have a good prizes. :)
