Side mirrors

The Z monster · 06-01-2012, 12:35 PM

Does anyone have a set of side mirrors, that are smaller than the king sized OEM mirrors that they want to get rid of? I need some bad. My wife is short and almost gets in accidents everyday cause those dang mirrors block her vision. I hate them also.

if you get new ones, can i buy your passenger side mirror? somebody vandalized my car and broke my mirror

The Z monster · 06-12-2012, 10:14 PM

That sucks man. Whenever I get some mirrors I'll let u know

Jordo! · 06-13-2012, 02:26 AM

I'm working on this -- I too hate how large they are. They absolutely block forward visibility when entering turns.

Search for Shamu and mirror. I'm getting closer to getting this together. May at least be able to provide advice if not parts once it all comes together.

Or...if you have ~$700 burning a whole in your pocket -- technosquare!

Lol. I do not have an extra $700 lol

look into a beater car for the wife...seeing there is no real solution. Aftermarket still would be in the way...

keep us posted with what you decide to do...

The wife has her own car but likes to drive the Z too. I just the the mirrors. I've almost been hit a few times too. I'll just have to get those $700 mirrors eventually. I heard the 350Z mirrors fit on the 370, is that true?

The aftermarket mirrors are way slimmer tho. That's my problem, not the length of it but the height. I have to sit up when I make turns to make sure no one is there. I'm only 5'5 lol

Kingbaby · 08-17-2012, 07:13 AM

Ah! I haven't heard or seen 350Z sides mirrors on a 370Z....side mirrors are my gripe as well on the 370Z...so friggin big!

nissan eliminated some blind spots with these mirrors to create blind spots.i do agree.they are quite big and its a shame that the slim ones are so expensive

The Z monster · 08-17-2012, 10:45 AM

Yeah its a bummer they r so expensive. I wish they'd come out with some mirrors like the bumblebee version of the camaro in transformers. Those r sick. Idk of anyone's seen them in person but I have. Oh well. I'm sure someone will make mirrors some day. I kinda like those $700 aftermarket ones but at the same time it almost seems like they look cheap. But I haven't seen them in person.

simota1 · 08-17-2012, 05:13 PM

i have a question... are the technosquare ones motorized or just manual adjustment...?

The Z monster · 08-17-2012, 06:20 PM

Idk. If they're not motorized that'll be another reason I don't want them
