Mirror question

rwnielsen · 02-01-2017, 03:01 AM

Does anyone make a nice set of side mirrors on like a skeletonized mount that would help with the giant blind spot? Especially on the driver's side. I don't really need the power adjust.
Thanks

Ganador and EVO-R (which are a replica of another brand who's name I can't think of at them moment). Buuuut, I have an extra set of electric Ganadors for sale

All you have to do is adjust the mirrors properly to eliminate most of the blind spot.

Or glue these on.

I kind of got the impression he didn't mean the rear quarter blindspot - but more the obstacle our gigantic mirrors present when trying to look forward through your side window.

I think this is my least favorite thing about the car. Really sucks for left turns.

Only a couple options out there, both mentioned above.

The craftsquare look pretty nice. I'll see if I can find a set that will fit well and look right. The Ganador's are more showy than I'm looking for. My other main bitch is the high beam indicator light, it's way too bright on a dark twisty road. I think I've got a fix for that though.
Thanks guys for your help

another approach is to raise ur seat a little. actually if u raise ur seat and do da CS, its about as good as it gets on dis car.

I sit on a small cushion. It helps prevent me from driving out into the path of other vehicles from time to time. (I think you call them pillows in America?)

Wouldn't this keep you from getting much needed arse feedback? My arse relay vital information when driving and a cushion would muffle it.
