Rather than get a new Blendmount, I’ve elected to try this mod.

My X1 is a 2013 xDrive 28i base model, Steel Top, with Cold Weather Package. No Premium, iDrive, M Sport, or Sunroof options.

Looking online at the HomeLink/Auto-Dim/Compass Mirrors, I noticed they have 9 wires in the pin connector, as my connector only has 4 wires.
I noticed the bracket arm mounting connector is also different.

I am curious to know if my window mount will be compatible, and how many wires other people here have.
Basically whether or not it is possible to get this working with my set up or i if need to do anything special?
Does anyone have any experience or insight?

Here are some photos of what I’m talking about, thanks.
Contact Blendmount, they have a longer center section for the mount which will get it lower. I called them and they suggested the longer piece which works like a charm.
