i completely agree! stock mirrors suck a$$!

[Bumble G]

Nevermind the fact that I can't adjust them properly to have no blindspots.

Drivers side = I can hide an entire minivan in it.
Passenger side = I can hide a small car (civic)

We all know that there are other mirrors available that would greatly reduce your blind spots. Try the Espec mirrors, I believe they have that curved protion on the outer edge to virtually eliminate blind spots.

Yeah TheMAN got some sweet mirrors from Europe with the super bugeye blindspot eliminator segments on them.

THat should help a bit

I haven't noticed a big problem with blind spots (I just change my speed), but for those interested in &quot;cheap&quot; solutions, there are those little convex stick on &quot;circle mirrors&quot; you can pick up @ Crappy Tire. Just stick one each on the outside edge, top or bottom, as long as the mirror is free to adjust when needed. Then you can see movement around you like a fly.
Or is this not cool enough these days with the young crowd? I've seen some aftermarket mirrors that didn't have very cool prices...

I don't have a problem with blind spots in the side mirrors. I adjust them F1 style.

The problem is looking in the rear view mirror and someone is coming up behind you behind those rear headrests.

[cruisinblackp5]

To solve the problem with the headrests is a lot easier than one would think. Take them out. Leave them on the seat and if you have passengers they can put them in and you can look at their heads instead of the headrests.

powered, heated, M3 mirrors.... mmmmmmmmmm

[MiniRX7]

I have heated mirrors, heated steering wheel, heated leather seats..

The heated mirrors however, don't do jack all... It takes a while for the snow to actually melt. Why would you want them anyways? it takes too seconds to scrape them off LOL&gt;.

I thought about that.

Truth is that I don't even trust my passengers to be considerate enough to close up the windows before I shut the car off, let alone try to install a headrest.

not so much for snow removal, that just brushes off when you clear the car anyway. It's ice and the mirrors fogging up which is why i would like heated mirrors.

[MiniRX7]

Oh true.. i never really notice my mirrors fogging up..

ANd the heated mirrors only turn on when you have it on rear defrost...

But you can also get antifog for it..
