I added the autodimming mirror with homelink last week. Twist the mirror 90 degrees right or left and the mirror will come off the stud on the headliner. The back housing around the stem comes apart in two peices and you can then unplug the cable from the mirror. The mirror is prewired for autodimming.

The 315Mhz has something to do with the keyless remote. If you purchase a new mirror from Classic MINI it will have a 315MHz module in the new mirror already. I sold my manual dip mirror for $90 on the Marketplace.
The new Autodimming mirror with Homelink cost me $345 from Classic MINI.

By the way, those part numbers are for a MINI Coopers S Build date Feb. 2006

I have a March '05 built Cooper S. How do I know if I already have the 315 MHZ or if I need it? They are two separate mirrors:

This is an upgrade I want to do too!

The two mirrors are auto dip, but one has Homelink the other doesn't. I have a Feb 06 build and used the part 51169134363. I was able to get this mirror from Classic MINI in OH for $345. Your car is prewired for the autodip mirrors, just chose either the mirror with homelink or the other without. The 315Mhz is built into both mirrors already.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread - but - I plan on removing the Stock mirror on my wife's 2012 Countryman to replace it with a rearview mirror with a monitor for a rear camera -(yes, I know, why - My wife wants it). The information about the 315MHz module in the mirror concerns me. Is this module for the remote entry system? In which case the rearview mirror replacement is out of the question.
TIA

Sorry to renew this thread folks. I have a 2006 MCS and just received a replacement auto-dim/UGDO mirror from vendor. My wife's car has its auto-dim feature went out with a big stain in the middle of the mirror. My question is, will the factory remote work after the plug and play swap? Or do I need to program the remote? Thanks for any help provided.

Thank you for such quick response. It's interesting that I found the replacement unit design is slightly different even the size and buttons are all the same. There's an additional hole on the back casing (not the light sensor hole). It appears to be serving as ventilation for internal components? There's nothing in there and I could see the mirror when shining a flashlight into the hole. Has anyone noticed or encountered this? I hope I'm getting the correct part, but not one for new MINI.
