    Bought some mirror's for the A4

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I bought these http://m.ebay.com/itm/191757530524 and installed them. Reasons why:

    1. I live in Miami. I'm surrounded by idiots that drive with their high beams on.
    2. The blind spot on my drivers side is pretty bad.

    This is what they look like installed at night

    I will say they take a bit to get used to. I kept the originals obviously in case I find them useless.

    Looking forward to hearing more about your experience with them. I definitely need heated being in the north east, but could use the blind spot and the tint for the 10000000s of idiots who drive around here with high beams. One of my biggest pet peeves.

    I don't remember where I got mine but I think they're heated, they also have the blue tint but over the past year or so the blue has been fading off in some spots.

    Day 2: so far so good, no complaints. I tested the heating function and they work well. Also, I can see a lot more with these. Blind spot issue is solved.

    Most people don't have their mirrors adjusted properly. Fix that and boom, no blind spot. Won't help with the HID Douches, though.

    This guy is a bit crusty, but his info is correct. I've been driving with my mirrors this way for a while and, even though I still do the over-the-shoulder glance, it's a huge improvement.
