Charlie, you are seriously working on getting you cars ready for 2020. I like it!
I would love to retrofit autofold to my mirrors, but not this year.

Sergy, this is something I should have done a long time ago but never got around to doing it. All I have to do is retrofit the motors and add the two wires into my connector plug (pins 1 and 2) and I should be all set. I have seat memory and have already done the rewiring to move my door mirror switch onto my CSL center console...
Once the parts arrive from "China" I will pull the motors from them and retrofit them into my OE mirror housings.
Edit: Looks like this weekend I will be retrofitting the autofold side mirror motors into my OE side mirror housings on my M3

It’s nice when an event organizer to a big event personally invites one of your cars to their event...
and this is why I mod my car the way I mod it folks...
VIP registration is what my M3 gets.

I started yesterday
Removed the part that makes this a manual folding side mirror...
With the auto-fold motor installed and reassembled you can now see the blue and white wire coming out of the mirror assembly.
Attaching the wires into the plug harness was easy because my kit came prewired.
All I had to do was swap the auto-fold motor into my M3 side mirror housing, run the wires and plug them into my connector plug (pins 1 and 2).
If I can post a video I will

Now that I have completed retrofitting autofold into my M3 side mirrors, I’m contemplating on whether or not I want to/should retrofit autodimming to my side mirrors like Shawn has on his M3 sedan
Very tempted and I know what wires to run thanks to Shawn sharing information I need to get this retrofit done.
It is ALWAYS GOOD PRACTICE to recognize ANYONE who help you to get your mods done on your car. Remember this folks.
With that said, my thanks to Mirza for his auto-fold DIY guide. If I did not see this I would not have tried doing this. His guide explained everything that I needed to do to get the autofold feature to work on my M3.
