370z needs better side mirrors
I have a Subaru Legacy GT and bought Prova Blue side mirrors,..
Probably the best "overpriced" item I bought > $150...but they are trick and I got no blind spots at all.. The 370z needs something like this or smaller side mirrors that are electric...they are too large and there is still a bad blind spot.. http://i37.tinypic.com/281ftdl.jpg |
I'm waiting for Craft Square to release mirrors for this car.
|
me too.
|
it looks like the 2010 has smaller mirrors more like the 350, I'll wait to snatch a pair of those if that turns out to be the case
|
hmm I don't have a picture or a link but what about those small little circular mirrors with 3M tape on the back side and have someone walking around the car and find the blind spot and drop the small mirror there.

Huh???? Why would they do that..... Looks identical to the '09 to me.... http://i576.photobucket.com/albums/s...nniversary.jpg |
you just need to learn how to adjust them. Tilt your head to the far left, then put the mirror where you can barely see the left side of the car. Then tilt right and do the same for the other side. In normal driving, you shouldn't be able to see your car from the side mirrors. It does take getting used to, but you will find, if you let a car pass you on either side, it will go from the rear view mirror, to the side to where you can see it directly and never be out of your sight.

Took me well over a week to get mine just right, but no more blind spots. I would like to upgrade to the 2010 mirrors only for the heated mirrors, but I will wait to find out exactly what it will take to do it. |
:iagree:
When I first got this car I felt like it had bilnd spots bad, but after adjusting the mirrors further out like Mike descibed above I have no problem feeling like I don't know what's going on around me. |
:iagree: x3

The mirrors are great for me. After only a week, I feel 100% sure when changing lanes, backing up, etc....and that's with the nismo spoiler in the way! Back-up cam will be more of a show-off thing, than a utility thing. |

:iagree: 100% correct my friend! |

This is fixed by doing a crunches while looking out the driver's side mirror then looking over my shoulder too to double-check. The more I drive my car, the more crunches I do, therefore I won't be 300lbs for long, right? (lol) As a biker, I pay close attention to blind-spots. Sadly, other bikers don't. |
im talking about the blind spot on the other side of the a-pillar.
i cant see very well while making my left hand turns cause i can't see OVER the side mirror like i can on my other cars. i noticed my G's sidemirrors are so much narrower. |
