Where did you guys get your 5 panel mirrors...

i found a few golf cart websites that sell of em for 20 bucks...

just wondering if there are any other websites that have them specifically for a car or what not

    I'd like to know this to...

    Also are we allowed to remove the old mirror in Texas? I think it'd look funny behind or below the 5 panel...

    i ordered mine from amazon. it's nice.

    the only thing i might reccomend is a 4 panel if you want to keep your sun visors

    I'm so glad that I ditched my wink after buying my car for a few reasons:

    1. No visors.
    2. No night dimming.
    3. With your mirrors adjusted correctly you don't have blind spots anyway.
    4. I find them kinda tacky/trendy.

    Despite all the things mentioned above, I still enjoy mine. I just carry a pair of sunglasses in the car for super bright days and actually adjusted mine down as low as it'll go with the brackets so that it blocks out some sunlight

    Forgot about the blazing sun problem too!

    So 5 reasons total. :lol:

    FALSEThere's always a blind spot.You can probably eliminate 1,but not both.This is where cops like to hide.

    2 reasons I don't like winks :Its a permanent visor & it's the 1st thing your head & pass. hd. hits in a accident.

    :idea: A good option is little convex mirrors on the outer mirrors.
    :idea: Recently I've found a convex mirror that wraps around the sides & top of your rearview that seems to eliminate the blind spots.I played around w/it ,but never tested it.Shaped kind of like this:

    ______________
    /..../''''''''''''''''''\.....\

    With the design you might be able to delete outside mirrors.

    Well, in the end it's up to you. There are definitely alternatives like the broadway mirror or some of those goofy press on mirror circles.

    The best mirror design is the JDM...the front fender mirrors.
  • superhatchsuperhatch Moderator
    Your false is false btw.

    It actually works really, really well, and I ALWAYS see a car travel from my rear view mirror to either of my sides. I never lose track of them, using only my OEM mirrors.

    I think it depends on the car too...as far as the wagon goes, it's basically a fishtank on wheels when you look around. Other cars it's pillars are huge and there's a big blind spot that's rough to deal with

    This is where I got mine, but you don't have to buy the clips that they suggest.
