I messaged Tommy from Music Box Technique to see if this is something that he can do. I'll let you know what he says.
Tommy said he's done it before and that he'll charge about 80 bucks for one side. I think I might jump on this, just need to do more research.

I have no updates unfortunately... I still want to see a video of these in action before jumping on it.

Did Tommy say he used the same exact modules you guys are talking about? And he said it works as advertised? If so, I take his word on it.

Ultimately what held me back were complaints that the mirrors would not return to their original position. I checked on the KP Technologies forums and they pretty much said in this thread that after 10 cycles the mirrors would require "minor" adjustments.

It looks like KP recently uploaded a video of the module on a Kia Optima on youtube. He filmed in the dark though... :/
