lighter than stock - c'mon guys they are mirrors! There are way easier ways to get weight savings

Only other firm that makes a mirror like that is ganador, cheaper at around $550 give or take, but not real cf like the Mine's ones are

thats a tall order.

to have any chance they would have to design them to use the stock mirror and powering setup, and figure a way to make them fit in the new design. that way they just need the actual housing. and dont forget the other half as well where it connects. I dont see it getting under 400$ at best, that is atleast 4 seperate peices, none duplicates. gotta be able to sell alot of something to make it cheap, and new mirrors just arent on many peoples to-do lists.
