Default that could be a selling point

Maybe it's that my audi is the quietest car that I've ever owned but the mirror noise on my 99 is HORRIBLE...these could be worth buying if the noise is decreased, although I heard that with the Hagus mirrors noise is even worse...let us know about the noise.

Default Re: I rem reading some article by Car&Driver or Top Gear about how these mirrors...

are so revolutionary and that when going at some high speed 80+mph or so that compared to "solid" mirrors they supposed to produce less drag and noise.

Ask who the manufacturer is. I'd question their quality w/out seeing them in person.
