Hi
I need to replace the motor in the passenger door mirror of my
(new-style) mini.
Is there a correct way to remove the actual mirror? (the mirror is
heated)
The motor appears to be secured by 4 bolts which have an unusual head.
Are these TorX? If so, what size?
Is replacing the motor just a matter of undoing the bolts, disconnecting
the wires and refitting in reverse order?

Thanks

Surely that's a warranty issue (i.e. Free Of Charge by BMW??)
