ya but what if your waiting for the uy to pass you lol and it makes you look cooler (as a passenger perspective lol) |
They are fulgy, but they are safer. How about using some small cheesy air scoop in the right location, then install a small mirror. Kinda like a shaved blind spot mirror, Patent!!!
|
I never thought of them as cool, or thought they were stupid (like training wheels).
If I bought my car with it I probably would've kept it on, but the bother for me to go to the store and buy them and put them on my car is not worth it, because I don't really care about it. |
I use the force. Close your eyes, feel your car around you, then expand the aura, feel your surroundings, then, in one flowing move, reverse, park and you're done, open your eyes, and all is well.
Or just turn your head and look, the way your suppose to. Those mirrors are not intended to be a replacement for actually looking around and beign aware of your environment. they are not cool. |

i also say they are uncool. I have my side mirrors adjusted so that i only see my own car if i move my head slightly towards that mirror. This dramatically reduces my blindspots. I also have those wide rear view mirrors. |

I bought some for $3 and that was money well spent it's not like I can't drive without it but it makes driving more enjoyable and easier especially on the highway |
I have them on my delsol and truck.. there great, makes seeing behind/beside you so much easier
|
it is a honda civic (over sized go kart). you can see everything.
I have never had them and never will. |
i say 3 bucks to never have to move your head and chill out is 3 bucks extremely well spent
|
The EM1's have a fairly thick C-pillar which hides cars quite well. Would be nice to not have to crane my neck to see if there is a car there every time...lol
but meh. I'm so used to knowing exactly where to look when there is a car in my blind spot that it doesn't bother me anymore. |
ewww... i had them on my car when I bought it... i took them off right away. They are yuckkky!
|
if you need blind spot mirrors to IMPROVE your driving, then you should not be on the road.
Turn your head and look...that's the safest way |
My brother has em on his volvo, every time I drive it, I get pissed. Those small round mirrors mess you up at night. You see the same car 2x and at different distances. Still have to turn your head and check. Would never trust just the mirror.
For example what if on the highway you are in 1st lane and a person in 3rd lane mergining to 2nd and also you are attempting to merge there. You look in the mirror and you think its fine, yet you can colide with the other car. If you look back you would notice the other persons flasher or him drifting over to the middle lane. But that's just my popunion. And about looking cool, whatever helps you drive is cool. |
Blind spot mirrors PLUS an oversized wide-angle rear view mirror are the COOLEST things ever!!
