BMW 6 Series Rear View Mirror Replacement Parts

The BMW 6 Series E63/E64 ran from 2003 to 2010, and interior rear view mirrors within this generation are generally a strong match for one another. Trim level and whether the mirror has auto-dimming, compass, or other integrated features will affect whether the replacement looks and functions identically to your original, so check what spec your car has before ordering. Ask the breaker to confirm the mirror matches your exact trim and options against your registration.

The F-series 6 Series ran from 2011 to 2018 and covers the Gran Coupé (F06), Convertible (F12), and Coupé (F13) body styles, with a facelift introduced in 2015. Mirrors from within this generation are generally compatible, but facelift models may have updated mirror designs or additional features, so crossing the 2015 boundary is best confirmed with the breaker against your registration. Engine choice makes no difference to rear view mirror fitment.

The E63/E64 (2003–2010) and the F12/F13 (2011–2018) are entirely different generations with different interior architectures, so the rear view mirror mounting, wiring, and design are not the same. A mirror from the earlier generation will not be a straightforward swap into the later car. Stick to sourcing a mirror from within your own generation.

Trim level itself does not change the physical mounting of the rear view mirror, but higher specifications such as SE, Sport, or M Sport may include auto-dimming, integrated cameras, or other electronics that differ from a base-spec mirror. If your original mirror has these features, make sure the replacement does too, otherwise you may end up with a plain glass mirror where a functional one is expected. Confirm the spec of the mirror with the breaker against your registration to avoid a mismatch.

Within the F-series generation, the interior roof and windscreen area differs slightly between body styles, which can affect mirror fitment, so it is worth specifying whether your car is an F06 Gran Coupé, F12 Convertible, or F13 Coupé when asking for a quote. For the E63 Coupé and E64 Convertible, the same consideration applies. Always give the breaker your full registration so they can match the mirror to your exact body style and specification.

No — whether your 6 Series has a petrol, diesel, or any specific engine size makes absolutely no difference to rear view mirror fitment. The mirror is an interior part that matches by generation, body style, and trim specification only. Focus your search on getting the right generation and feature set rather than worrying about what is under the bonnet.
