If you didn't live so far away, I know my brother would fit them for you. I would help myself but last time I fitted a smelly to my car, I ripped the rear view mirror off.

To do the mirrors the door cards need to come off, and you need a trim removal tool. If you don't the door card will come off and the plastic door pockets will still be attached to the door. Trust me...

Oh, and the motors are riveted on.

half of that is rubbish.. the mirros have a seperate plastic cover for the bolts... no card removal..
the door pokets are screwed on.. in some cases clipped on... in most screwed.... and as for the motor.. yes they are riveted on... thats why i have a rivet gun and a small place atachment for it... just for those types of jobs...
easy...

If they're electric the wiring plug is behind the trim panel.

The door pockets are stuck, repeat STUCK, to the rear of the trim, I learnt this the hard way.

You on about door trims in general or on BMW's?

Easiest ones I've done were on my old Escort, worst were on a '99 Skoda.
