Had any one installed this? kptechnplogies had it. Not sure where are the wires are located on R56.

according to the installation instructions here are the wire that needed

12VDC CONSTANT
12VDC IGNITION
GROUND
REVERSE INPUT
MIRROR ‘UP’ OUTPUT
MIRROR ‘UP’ INPUT
MIRROR ‘DOWN’ OUTPUT

 

It came stock on my BMW. It was a nice option you could turn on and off. Sometimes I miss that and my heated mirrors.

 

I'm interested in knowing how well this works as well. I hate that my Mini doesn't have this feature.

 

Anybody find instructions for the R56? I've already got curb-rash on two of my winter wheels. Would be nice to have this on my next MINI.

 

Now this is a thread that needs some updates. Any out there?

Now that I've got my summer alloys back on and doing lots of parallel parking, I have been finding that moving my to torso to the right and lifting my head up is enough to see the curb in my right mirror to prevent curb rash.

Still it would be nice to have the auto down feature on the mirrors. It would have to have an east disable feature/switch though - I use my mirrors to back into my parking garage spot.

I still find I have trouble seeing how much room is behind my bumper because of the high belt-line of the Cooper.

 

Here is teh instruction manual for the added part.

now search the electrical forums for a link to the wiring diagrams for the car and that should be all you need to get this installed.
