Thinking about it - popping out mirrors takes 5 seconds and disconnecting another 5 seconds. And considering that each EC mirror of a m5 costs about 300-400 EUR, we have EUR 800 worht damages in 10 seconds. It is basically like leaving your SLR camera tied around your car - untying it also takes about 10 seconds...

ohh god, and I thought Bangladesh was the only country where they do that.....recently a friend of mine had his whole mirror assembly torn while he was stopped at a red light (a Toyota Premio, something smaller than a Camry and bigger than a Corolla)......he said a little boy not more than 10 pull it off and ran off like a chita........... lol
