Side Mirrors?

[tbryanh]

I like those secondary mirrors (usually round but sometimes square) that help get rid of the blind spot near your car, but I don't like to paste them on to the existing mirrors, I like them as separate mirrors.

How can I install these mirrors to my 4R?
Any suggestions of which ones to use?

You could adapt some sprinter mirrors like these:

That's the idea. I wonder if anyone has done this on a 3rd gen 4R before?

Autobahn Blind Spot Mirror

Just discovered the Autobahn Blind Spot Mirror. Think I might give them a try.

I vote that you get some JDM hood-mounted mirrors

Went with convex side mirrors that I mounted to the doors. Turned out real nice. Works real good.

I would like something like this on the passenger side to spot for rocks off-road. Has anyone done something like that?

Those remind me of the little dinky mirrors that came on my Jeep Wrangler. I have them in a parts bin somewhere cuz I replaced them.

After driving a couple of days with the new mirrors, I realize now that even though the new mirrors are convex, they are not wide-angle like a blind spot mirror is supposed to be, so I am going to pick up some large round stick-on mirrors and stick them on.

This might seem goofy, but I thought that that's what I might ultimately need to do when I was shopping for these mirrors. I will post some pictures after I pick up some of those stick-on mirrors.

I stuck those wide angle mirrors on top of the mirrors I just installed a couple of days ago. Works great! Job complete!
