Hi everyone !
after a long absence I returned
may be someone remembers my work on the mirror conversion project.
the last post was about 3d printed trimmed and glued prototypes which were successfully installed after 3 years spent on the shelf ( click to see it )
but in 2021 I have finished the KIT is I saw it at the beginning of the z3m mirror conversion project!
Kit is designed to give every z3 owner a chance to convert their stock non M mirrors to M
it is 100% suitable for coupe and roadsters, RHD and LHD , headed and not heated
also it can be used to refurb your broken M mirrors
NOW KITS are not printed BUT MOLDED
kit consists of 2 mirror bodies and mounting hardware
it requires to use parts of your stock mirrors - Bases , motors and harness
you will need to buy z3m mirror glasses and butyl tape (same es used for z3 soft top replace) or 2 side adhesive tape
after assemble your mirrors will look 100% as stock z3m mirrors
I have produced the last 15 kits and going to close the mirror kit project and start the next z3 conversion project

1) You will need to disassemble your stock mirrors.
2) you will need to use from your stock mirrors :
-bases , rubbers
- motors and wiring
3) you will need to buy separately mirror glasses, butyl tape or adhesive tape
Conversion recommendations
1. Uninstall your stock mirrors, disassemble to parts
- Wiring will stay installed on the door
- Unplug wiring from mirror motor
- Uninstall the locking washer on the bottom of the base - it will let to disassemble mirror to parts and separate mirror base
2. After Paint work
- Use 2sided adhesive tape on the bottom of the base around the pin hole
- Insert the new pin (included in mounting kit) - it will be glued by previously installed adhesive tape
- Mount base with pin on the door using stock mounting screws - thread the wiring through the pin hole
- Use 2 sided adhesive on the conversion mirror bottom side
- Thread the conversion mirror body on the pin - do the same to the wiring - conversion mirror body will be glued to the base (it will prevent spool)
- Thread wiring through the second mounting part that will attach on the pin
- Plug wiring to the motor (use color mach marked on the plugs of motor)
- Screw motor to the conversion mirror body using stock screws
- Install mirror glass (buy separately)
IMPORTANT NOTE
this is aftermarket conversion kit
All upgrades you do on your own risk about legacy, safety and so on
Professional Paint work will be needed
Some fitment corrections could be needed
Professional installation is recommended - depending on your skills - installation time from 30min to 120min
