Pre LCI Mirror Caps same as LCI?

Are the 2019-2022 mirror caps the same as the 2023 caps on the m340i?

Pretty sure the new M340i's have the M wing mirrors now, which wasn't the case for the 19's, 20's, and maybe the 21's..?

But the fitment should be the same if thats your question

To answer your question, any aftermarket option should be compatible on any M340i pre-lci and lci.

its so strange, some companies list their caps as non compatible between lci and non lci and other companies list them as compatible for both

IIRC, it’s been confirmed to be the same exact mirror. LCI made no change to the mirror assembly itself. Only difference is the mirror cap stock with M-style winglet or not.

If you're looking for a less expensive alternative I put these on and they fit perfectly and look great:

Edit: I got the gloss black. I can't speak for the carbon fiber version.

Does this mean I can purchase M340i LCI side mirrors and fit it perfectly onto my 3 series LCI?

Yes, pre-lci and LCI are the same. The only difference is the external cap style that was offered stock. Regardless, you can install any oem or aftermarket mirror cap, pre-lci or lci.
