Those are some crazy prices! And I don't think that BMW oe either!
The way to find out if you have heated mirrors if you have two wire connections going to the mirror. And auto dimming feature is another connection, which is a plastic molding going around the mirror To another connection inside. And I have my new mirror installed. With just the heated function hooked up. (no dimming) I just left that connection unplugged. And no codes. Functions properly no problems.
And I have the winter cold weather package. But I think the e53 may have come with a standard feature of heated mirrors. It's is a German engineered BMW after all.

Heated, aspherical, light blue tint. New driver side mirror for e53. ($30 shipped in the US) pm me.

much thanks all. I misunderstood the auto-dip, thought it meant the parking thing, no auto-dim here (dunno if it was offered in '01, have the prem pkg)

Looks like the heated single will work (thanks alex, but need passenger).

It's only ugliness(brown blotches on top of mirror) but it drives me crazy as I'm hooked on the fwd,fwd,fwd,fwd,mirror,mirror,mirror, repeat forever vision habit, heheh. 'bit OCD, me.

Heyyyy.. ya know.. if I decide to get the aspherical passenger mirror, I might just have some OE glass sitting around doing a whole lot o nuttin. If you have an auto dimming (electrochromatic) rear view, the glass from my '04 should dim when your rear view does. Interested?

Prices are based off BMW Europe cost structure, they are genuine European BMW mirrors.
