5 gen and 6 gen mirrors have the exact same fittings. They are compatible with each other 100%.

The only difference is the housing style.

I just did mine not too long ago. it is not an exact 100% fit. 2 out of the 3 bolts will line up no prob but if you want all 3 your gna have to make a new hole (new hole on the plate in the car, not on the mirror). When i did my install my drill died on me so I only used 2 of the 3 holes. It seems to hold up fine like this. i plan to make the 3rd hole, just havent gotten around to it yet. Also, I made the holes in the mirrors bigger so that i could use the 6th gen hardware.

I'd agree b/c you still need to drill one hole to get the 5th gens to fit.
