I started thinking he was talking about auto DIP.  Then I re read it and I'm not sure  :embarassed:

Cheers for the responses. I am talking about auto dim. I heard that with the early luxury packs the drivers wing mirror auto dimmed to minimise glare, however later models did not have that function. My question is: if I buy a wing driver's side wing mirror with the auto dim feature (if one exists at all) can I simply retro-fit it to my 2008 model (which does not have this feature)?
