How much did it cost you and how easy was the install? I'm seriously considering that mod.

TP,

That looks awesome! How much do you think installation on those folding mirrors would cost on my C230? That would be a great addition to any W202. Especially, since I drive on small one lane bridges, and have cramped garages .

Thanks!
