Elvis,
Did these ebay auctions have anything to do with the question ?

I had asked about availability of these items but got no answer.  I  
don't know enough german to understand the answer anyway.   The  
asymmetric set looks like a direct fit except they are mirror image,  I  
mean backwards, small mirror on left.   The large would require finding  
a mirror donor from an A4/Passat of the memory/heated variety.  Perhaps  
an A6 donor might be easier to find.
Igor, do you have any clues about what model A6 mirror might be a  
suitable full size donor for the movable portion of the right mirror ?
There was an auction for just the genuine RS4 shells, but $349 each was  
a little much.   I believe these sets should be more reasonably priced  
than the auctions have shown, especially with $57 shipping added.   
Could this be the beginning of a new group buy ?  It might take a man  
in Germany to investigate the source for these parts, or someone fluent  
in german to try to contact this auction individual.  Any interest in  
the mirrors here or expertise to offer ?
