Aftermarket mirrors
Anybody out there change out the stock mirrors to something smaller? The stock ones seem to me to be ridiculously huge. Pics would be nice if you have them. I've searched but didn't really find anything.

I'm waiting for someone to try mounting Z33 mirrors. They're still big but at least never gave me the problems I'm noticing with having to literally sit up a bit to see over the tops of the Z34 mirrors, or even peer around them sometimes - especially when making left turns

I'm at three near misses. I drive with the seat slanted way back. have to remind myself to really sit up before making turns, both left and right. Go Craftsquare.

Really. These stock mirrors suck!!!! STUPID design IMO. Seems like it's an accident waiting to happen.
I want to switch to a smaller sport mirror. Why did Nissan have to make these soooo large? It's about the only thing I DON'T like about my new Z. I'm glad to hear other owners experiance the same opinion. I thought I was the only one. I found these I had put on my Porsche years ago. I might try them on the Z. http://www.jcwhitney.com/BLACK_FLAG-...;0;2008323;0;0 Last edited by ferrari_rich; 01-25-2010 at 11:54 AM. |
