In the UK there is VAT which is 17.5%. On the site they do say they state:

"MINIMUM 15% Discount on ?GBP listed prices for orders outside the European Union"

So you are getting a better deal than if you live in the EU.

just want to let u know that the motors is sh*t..my friend has bought this replica M5 mirrors in indonesia, and he told me he need to replace the motors with the original.. the motors in replica M5 mirros is slow and sometimes got stuck when u want to change the position. and is not 100% perfect fit, you need to do some modification on the mirrors.
thats what mt friend says, he bought his for 3million rupiah which is only $333.33USD.
so be careful with these products and dont forget the material is fiberglass.

@rock
There's a cheaper replica over here. 350USD only. I dono if its the same. But the guys are correct, these mirrors comes with no options at all. If you want autofold, you have to use the motor from your original mirrors.
