Not sure on the automated controls yet, I'm sure that they will work but won't know until they are installed. The mirrors do have a plug for it. They are a little pricey, especially because I had them sent 3 day from Japan. Don't know the exact weight but they do feel a little heavy. I will try and find a scale a little later.

Should look like this once installed. My G is also white.

Outstanding!! The design sure is made for a sports car. Take pictures at different angles when you get it installed.

Each weigh in at exactly 1 pound. Don't know when I will have a chance to install, hopefully soon. They were almost 60,000 yen so almost 600 bucks!

I don't like those at all. Most people on here seem to think the Vision and APR mirrors are ugly, but seem to like these? I don't get it, not attractive at all if you ask me

"Id be so on it if it was real carbon fiber."

They do look like a painted pattern in the pics, but for $600 they better be real carbon fiber, they gotta be.

It is real carbon fiber, but just to cover the mirror and the bracket. I think they are pimp, look 100x better in person. They retail for $527, I paid more because I am impatient.

Are you sure? I like them. But I know that they are not real carbon fiber. Someone had the same thing a while ago and state that its not made of real carbon.

Ganador is not made of carbon at all - its a laminate that looks carbon...sort like McD's is not really meat...it's meat-esque
