Does anyone use blind spot mirrors?
Not that I don't know how to drive without blind spot mirrors, but I am use to having them just as an extra layer of safety. I adjust my mirrors as best as I can to see, but I want to see more sometimes quicker. Does anyone use blind spot mirrors? If so, I was interested in finding one that would not look stupid on the tiny Camaro side mirrors. Pictures would be appreciated

I've seen them on a few Camaros, the small round stick-on type. Personally I can't deal with them though.

I had the round ones on my 2011 and they looked stupid my new 14 doesn't have them and I miss them. I saw some on a 2014 Chevy truck and they look like part of the mirror I will try to find them

I have them, I don't think it detracts from the looks in any way.

I had them on my 2010 coupe but have never put them on the 2012 convertible. Either visibility is better or I just got used to the blind spots and compensate automatically for them.
I needed some on my Spark though, and I got some that were adjustable at autozone. Once I had them in I thought the frame around the mirror part was blocking too much. So I removed the mirror portion from the frame and reinstalled them. Now they look like part of the actual mirror.

I just did the "head lean" trick to setting my side mirrors. Pretty much eliminates the blind spots even with these tiny mirrors.

Second week of owning my Camaro i cut off Texas state trooper in a Tahoe. Literally never saw him.
I added the spots and they are well worth it. |
