Manual are lighter partictualy if you also remove all the associatd wiring and switches.
Could also think about how far they stick out and how un aerodynamic they are.
Fitting smaller more aerodynamic ones would help, both in terms of drag and weight saving.
The main down fall of them is reduced vision.
