I estimate they will cost somewhere in the region of an amount that would make me feel damned glad that I wasn't paying for them, if that helps.

Re: Smashed Wing Mirror.

I've seen many displays of one-upmanship, but this is the first in which wing mirrors have featured.

Re: Smashed Wing Mirror.

Puddle lights are on the door mirrors they illuminate the ground outside the car, the idea is to show any puddles so you don’t step in them as you get in the car…hence puddle lights

The interior footwell and cabin lighting , are called ambient lighting, on some cars, the colour can be changed…
