It is a BMW part.
I get the feeling maybe they don't disassemble and re-juice LCDs.
I bet for the rear view mirrors they replace the entire internal mirror assembly.
In the case of this side view mirror, it is the entire assembly.

I got it apart and cleaned up fairly easily, but not without cracking the outer plastic trim.
I'm pretty sure I can glue the trim back together so the crack doesn't show.
I haven't quite figured out how to put the glass back on the mirrored part and seal it so moisture doesn't get in.
Got busy with work and Holiday stuff, so it's now in my 1/2 finished projects queue.
