I've had BMW's with those buttons there for 16 years and never had a problem with it, but its not a great location for the wife who yanks the mirror every time she drives the car. It was inevitable that one day she would grab it in the wrong place.

Since it's your first time with a BMW remote mirror, a helpful tip that will save you an hour of frustration:

You need the garage door's handheld remote as part of the setup process. It's not enough to hit the button on the back of your garage door's motor assembly, you need the handheld remote in the car for setup too.
