Great video. This is the only full video I've found that shows a complete dismantling of a E46 M3 mirror assembly. I need to do the exact same thing to my car. This video is a big help, thanks.

Great how to mate, especially regarding the plug strip.

Very informative and a detailed step by step guide to what is a costly job for any bodyshop to quote for a strip down.

Hello. How is the new paint holding up? I have mine disassembled thanks to this video but I’m worried the corrosion might come back.

Does the connector in the case install only one way? Just wondering to ensure the connector is not installed incorrectly.
