Default they are nice but if you lived without them this long without an accident, you don't need it

I got them a while back since I had them on the TT which was a necessity for that car so at this point I cannot fathom driving the S4 without it.

Close to $600 is a lot for some people, so its totally up to you. The cheapest I saw the dimming ones going for was about 2 years ago at a backdoor group buy kind of stuff for $380 so they are not cheap either way.

Default For ~$1/ea, these babies do the job...

With as much driving as I do, I don't think I could drive without them again. They're also great for backing into parking spots as you can see your rear tires, which you can't do by twisting your neck in any direction (unless your window is open, and then only the driver's side)

Default I had a pair on my (former) car. For sale if you want em.

I had them on my car. Dramatic improvement in the blind spot. I've since sold the car, and I've been intending to ebay the mirrors, but I haven't gotten around to it. Make me an offer if you're interested.

Default i was referring to the price on the non-dimming ones

so i would assume that the dimming ones would be cheaper as well

Default

you have it backwards. Diming=expensive. Non-Diming="cheap"
