Default Replacement powered side mirrors. What are the options?

I am getting a little tired of the OEM side mirrors and I am thinking about replacing them. I have been looking around and I can't find anything that looks good and and keeps the power option. Anyone have any suggestions?

can i ask why is it important to keep them powered? ...just curious

shouldn't have to change the mirrors once they are set. unless you were thinking of going with a heated side mirror or something, i don't see the big reason to stay powered, and it opens up your options quite a bit

No real reason really. It just would kinda bother me to remove the adjustment feature even if I really use it very seldomly. I am not looking for heated mirrors.

They look good. $500 bucks seems a little steep for a plastic housing.

If you want power and real carbon you can get the Mines mirrors. Spendy but nice....

If you can live without power get the Craftsquares, Im running them now and am very happy with them so far.
