The mirror in the BMW M6 was done by www.radar-mirror.com , I think the youtube video was before thier website was up. I just had this done in my LX570 - here's some pics of the mirror.

It was $499 for an auto dimming mirror, they can do it for less without auto dimming but I didn't want to lose that. The install is very clean, the V1 is hidden in the headliner so no one will really know it's there.

^ $499? Do you have to send in your original mirror? I thought the Gentex mirror that comes in our car is more expensive than that, so seems like a good deal.

Yeah you have to send in your mirror.. $399 - $499 is normal pricing for this mod. Radar-mirror.com was the only company that guaranteed no loss of auto dimming, which is a must have imo.
