@Prestovie totally unrelated, but is calling someone a “jag” an Illinois thing? In 30 years I’ve only known one person to call people that, and he’s from Chicago.

Hmm I was curious about the term so I googled it... came up with is among others:
Jagoff or jag-off is an American English derogatory slang term from Pittsburghese meaning a person who is stupid or inept. It is most prominent in the Greater Pittsburgh area. The Dictionary of American Regional English defines the term as a "general term of disparagement"
Changed out the hidden compass Homelink mirror for an M3 mirror that I repaired the auto dim Glass (glass purchased from Radar mirror) but then also added 2 wire leads from the auto dim controller in the mirror so that I can wire in E90 auto dim side view glass. (E90 pre LCI glass is the same as e46 just with heat and auto dim)
made the connection factory with a factory connector, heat shrink and fabric tape lol.
Just finished testing it and all 3 mirrors auto dim properly. Now just need to run wires through each door and up to the headliner
Video doesn't show how dark it gets because the camera changes exposure and readjusts.

Very cool. I’ve always wondered if anyone made auto-dim side mirrors.

Me.too. I kept wondering why when I search for E46 M3 mirror glass on eBay it kept showing e90s so then I started researching Auto dimming mirror and saw few threads on m3forum and saw that Terra used the same auto-dimming mirror lenses in his car but he didn't actually hook up the auto-dimming party, he just use the glass but seeing him do that gave me the idea.Quote:

Not exactly the same but they are compatible for mounting.Quote:

Not auto dimming don't have the electric chromatic surround and look like the m3 ones.
