Honestly wasn’t all that bad. I’m lucky I have a garage to do projects in now though. And that my Z is a florida car and I’m located in Texas now, so minimal rust to deal with. It was at most a 6/10 on the difficulty scale.
The worst part was putting the pan back on even with zip ties holding the gasket. I also ran the Liqui moly flush before draining the oil. Left the oil pump alone since it was really tight on there

Hm, it should work if you already have an auto-dimming mirror. All EXX series BMW's use the same mirror connections I think. I didn't have an auto-dimming mirror so I had to wire in pins 3 (12V) and 10 (Ground) to get the auto-dimming and compass functions to work. If you have a voltmeter I'd check out those pins on your connector.
Did the mirror's security light blink at least? If you fail to re-wire and need it, the clown nose should still blink (pins 8 and 9 are on all mirrors and BMWs) but the compass and auto-dimming won't work.
If you have an SOS equipped car and don't do the re-wiring, it will brick the mirror - so if you had that feature on your old mirror, that could well have been the cause.
