auto fold can be 5-pin, without memory and only with heating

These are 3 wires , my car original was 5 wires non fold , but i had to buy the ones with 3 wires if your mirrors have that motor on top (black bit) them you have auto fold, i never heard of auto folding mirrors with 5 wires but I’m sure you can check on bmw wiring diagrams .
