Backache and neck problem from office job. Sit too long and travelling too much I guess. My radar alway very good, very vigilant and spot [gorgeous] miles away! [laugh] . Just cannot do too much twisting! [smallcry] ! Last time dun want these extra mirror but thinking of it after seeing comment!

 

Mine was when one of these mirrors fell off along the road and the support cover stain my side mirror....Have to use water to clean it a few times to remove the stain. Thus I decided not to use it in the end.

Just having a random thought about getting blind-spot mirrors(round button-like) and technically it seems like a good device/aid to have. But i'm just wondering if it really does help for the lookout given the small area used on your side mirror? It seems like nobody uses them at all.

 

I have been driving for 10 over years without needing one. Just use side-mirrors and turn the head a bit can sense the blind spot already mah....

 

Sometimes too many mirrors may even make you confuse.

Spot on. Makes parallel parking a lot easier!!!

 

 

Is it? Never thought of that. I always parallel park based on "feeling"....no mirrors, no technique, nothing.

It's cheap, just buy and try. It has been useful for me.

 

From the encounters I have on the road, quite a handful don't check blindspot. They just filter at their will, and if someones horns at them, they switch on the signal lights and continues filtering :blink:

LOL feeling is technique based on your car [:p] I haven't had one for any car for a while, but i remember having it on the 180sx and it helped heaps at parking with one reverse in, and one forward movement to center the car in the lot instead of reverse in, forward to straighten the car then backwards to center the car.
