BMW's list price is $67.88 for a single mirror. I assume the above is for a single? Chicago BMW's price with their 20% discount is $54.30.

I received and got installed these 125mm Wunderlich/MFW mirrors with mirrors extenders... mirrors came in blue tone, they are sharp and with a second area that is supposed to improve blind spot visibility but I still wonder how they do that. The blue color is good in California under heavy sun...but kind of weird at night to me.

Only small problem is that I feel like they vibrate a little too much...maybe due to the extenders... I have to fix that in the next few days, probably using small weight attached somewhere, maybe I'll try without extenders or re-tight everything..

The extenders are efficient any way and vision field is way wider...NO MORE SHOULDERS in my sight.
