Default Convex LH Mirror definate MUST have

Just installed my Convex LH mirror and took it out for a spin. Wow, no blind spot!

I should have bought this way before I had to start driving with the top up.

Thanks MUZ

Now, if only a hardtop were within budget

my one reason i haven't done this mod yet is because i use my LH mirror to look for particular members of law enforcement. i cant rely on my rearview because of my f@#%&$g plastic rear window. i clean it, it gets film. i clean it, it gets film.....and that doenst even take into account the scratches that cant be removed.

if there were a viable option for getting a glass rear window with out having to spend an arm and a leg, i would jump all over this LH mirror thing.

Yeah, damn cops just don't understand

I personally drive 98% of the time with the flow of traffic, and never the fastest on the hiway.

The other 2% I would deserve the ticket anyway.

I don't believe in the need for radar detectors either. I also will pass a cop on the hiway while everyone else is afraid to, and I've never gotten pulled over for that

Finally a good day that I'm not at work.

All pictures are with the cars in the same location.



Leaning over & back


Just turning head (leaning a little to the right so camera would be where head is) reveals the blind spot.


Various angles of car position

By the way, when you can glance at the mirror, you can see the back of a car in the mirror, and the nose will be in your peripheral vision out the window!
