They should get a full-length rear-view mirror.

u/[deleted] · 11 pointsr/vandwellers

Gonna need one of these.

u/SirMontego · 6 pointsr/Hawaii

When I took the road test many years ago, the car I was driving had a giant panoramic rear view mirror, like this. Since I could see everything in the back and side of the car, I didn't do a textbook head check when doing the lane change test. Apparently, this was reason for minus points. Lesson: turn your head.

u/econologic · 6 pointsr/funny

This might be a standard feature now - and i found what i think came with my car (amazon.com) -rearview mirror reacts to the brightness of headlights in it and dims so you're blinded for only a half second while it reacts. That or rip one out of any recent modern luxury sedan at your local pick & pull.

I live in a state with the smallest penis per capita - so it has been incredibly useful for any night travel and i highly recommend it.

There's an example. It's nice, especially in full speed traffic on the freeway and you're worried the asshole in front of you is going to brake check you the moment you turn your head.

u/peter__venkman · 3 pointsr/jetta

Get a Euro switch, allows you more options for running lights and headlights and is superior. Easy to install, too.

I have one of these and I love it, combined with blindspot mirrors on your outside rear views, it makes for a much safer driving experience. And looks neat.

And yeah, vinyl wrapping the brushed aluminum.

u/scorpionMaster · 3 pointsr/scion

Get a set of these, you'll be able to see everything.

iJDMTOY Universal Fit JDM 300mm 12" Wide Curve Clip On Rear View Mirror For Car SUV Van Truck, etc https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CWNVAPW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_uS4zzbP5MY7AT

u/PartyPenguin · 2 pointsr/Accounting
u/Anonymoustard · 2 pointsr/Amblyopia

I'd recommend this. It takes a little getting used to but it takes care of all 'blind spots.' Used it for years.

edit: Lots of brands and styles most just clip on whatever car you are using.

u/Zip668 · 2 pointsr/Datsun

Fender mirrors: Probably chrome on a silver. If you have stock bumpers, it's really a toss up, either would look good.

I was thinkin about a wink mirror too, but have this in my amazon cart right now.... My thought is that i'd still have usable sun visors, and wouldn't have to drill into anything. http://www.amazon.com/Broadway-Aluminum-Plating-Mirror-Convex/dp/B0082FA9II

u/Qson · 2 pointsr/Miata

I don't remember if it's a 360mm or a 400mm, but it's a convex Broadway mirror that I bought from Super Autobacs a few years ago. I found a vendor on Amazon for ya!

u/lowlyworm314 · 2 pointsr/driving

One thing you didn't mention that might be worth considering is one of those big, police style rear view mirrors:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001A0J2JO/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_1?pf_rd_p=1944687622&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B0015FYQ90&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1B3CNP4PMY6P8XDX2YQE

I've not tested one of these but it sounds worth at least considering given the circumstances you describe.

u/some_random_kaluna · 2 pointsr/camaro

Buy a panoramic mirror and clip it on.

Here's a 11.75-inch version.

Here's the 17.75 inch version.

They'll take some getting used to, but once you do, you can see infinitely more behind you and to your left and right. I credit these mirrors with saving my life more than 10 actual times in all weather conditions. I won't drive any car without one now.

u/Crusty_Dick · 2 pointsr/CasualConversation

My tips would be to try driving a smaller or a more compact car. I find they have a better turning radius, thus are much easier to parallel park, getting into tight corners, navigating through tight spaces, etc. Also try replacing your rear view mirror with a wider one like one of these: Fit System RM011 Clip-on Wide Angle Rear View Mirror https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001A0J2JO/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_hYf-wbBME5VY5

I use this particular 18 inch mirror that just clips on to your existing mirror. This gives you a much bigger field of vision of what's behind you when your driving, and you can see your blindspots and everything! It just feels much more safer, thus making you feel more confident when driving..

Having a backup camera can help you alot too. I mainly use mine for parallel parking because it's sometimes hard to judge the distance between the back of my car and the front of the car behind me.

You can also try investing in brighter LED headlights for your car if you don't have them already. Or turn on your fog lights as well. I know, driving at night can be dangerous especially when it's hard to read the road signs or see the street lines, especially if your not familiar with the roads. Just remember, if its really hard to see at night and there are no cars around you, feel free to use your high beams! That's what they are there for. Just make sure you don't have them on if there is a car coming in front of you because you can seriously blind the hell out of them lol. I deliver food as part of my job so I am always driving and exploring new areas, driving at night is always much harder..

u/ham4radio · 2 pointsr/boston

If you want an easy way to increase your situational awareness, spend $9 on a clip-on wide-angle mirror.

If you want to be more hardcore, spend $19 on a 5-panel mirror, which doesn't distort distances.

u/Joerge90 · 2 pointsr/subaru

Razo RG20 10.6" Black Frame Wide Angle Flat Rear View Mirror - Pack of 1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00168BJ82/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_SMqfzbDP83YNP

u/77ticktock · 2 pointsr/CrownVictoria

Thanks! I have a blindspot mirror and a front facing dvr camera for my android receiver.

u/ho_merjpimpson · 2 pointsr/RZR

ok, so mine came with one of the square-er ones... like this...

https://smile.amazon.com/Shatter-proof-Tempered-Mirrors-Polaris-Commander/dp/B073FLGW7F/ref=sr_1_54?keywords=rzr+mirror&qid=1569951501&s=gateway&sr=8-54

awful. for one, they are convex so they let you see a wide area, but they also let you see a tall area, so during the day, you are stairing at yourself, and at night, you cant duck below it when someone comes up behind you with their bright-ass light bar. for 2, they are an absolute bear to adjust and dont stay in place. for 3, they dont offer a wide enough view to see things that arent directly behind you.

so i picked up one of these...
https://smile.amazon.com/Mirror-Convex-Clamp-Polaris-RZR800/dp/B01M0HAWOT/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=rzr+mirror&qid=1569951633&s=gateway&sr=8-4

got it as a gift, so its not saved in my purchase history, but they are all basically the same.

its awesome. wide enough to see what i need to, and low pro so it doesnt block my view. can lower my head if someone with bright lights is behind me.. very secure. easy to adjust if i needed to.

i took the old one and mounted it on the passanger side for the gf. that way she isnt turning around to see if people are behind us every 30 seconds causing me to remind her every 30 seconds that i have a mirror and she needs to pay attention to watching out for branches.

u/TomTheGeek · 2 pointsr/tech

No way I'll give up my rally mirror. I suggest everyone get one, they're cheap and really increase visibility.

u/cvr24 · 1 pointr/CarAV

Yes there is, but hooboy is it expensive! https://www.amazon.com/GENK3345S-Definition-Display-Compass-Homelink/dp/B00ARDBD1K


You can also consider a Garmin BC30 backup camera and compatible Garmin GPS. Automatically shows the backup camera feed on the GPS when you shift into reverse. Expensive but still less expensive than the option above. And it's wireless, so easier to install.

Or you can pick up a cheap display screen off amazon for less than $50 and mount it on the dash somewhere.

u/WaltMitty · 1 pointr/Honda

I googled the part number from that page and found the mirror on Amazon for $19.91 shipped.

Then I tried a local dealership and (assuming some trim details) found it for $19.48 list, $15.20 internet price. The dealer is probably the best option.

u/cty_hntr · 1 pointr/subaru

If you want to keep things stock, and just add bluetooth audio this can do it for $20.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RH29CJO


I was able to hold off on a backup camera for 3 years by using one of these.

u/HouseSomalian · 1 pointr/NoStupidQuestions

You can just wear some of these super cool shades

u/Punchee · 1 pointr/AdviceAnimals

Also these are awesome. They clip over your normal rear view mirror and allow you to see a far bigger angle, minimizing or eliminating blind spots.

u/smileyke · 1 pointr/FJCruiser

Broadway BW849 360mm Type-A Convex Mirror https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0040E1HJA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_vc3sDb1ATQQAJ I have this in my FJ and my race car. Works well.

u/frankztn · 1 pointr/cars

Is there an AutoDim wide angle rear view mirror?

I use this and it claims to reduce 45% of glare. I do have 25% tint so don't really need autodim even if the headlights behind me are eye level of the rear view mirror.

u/slayerboy · 1 pointr/Libertarian

Not usually.

In NY state I have a restriction on my drivers license that says I have to be wearing my hearing aides or have a full length rear-view mirror (or blind-spot mirror).

When I first started driving I had one. I used to get reminded of it all the time because passengers would not realize and hit their head on it while getting in to my hatchback. It's really not a bad thing to have regardless of hearing impairment or not, you can see everything behind you.

u/chessc · 1 pointr/melbourne

I recommend getting a wide angle rear view mirror. It's physically about twice as wide as a standard mirror, and it lets you see out of your side windows through your central mirror. The remaining blind spots are very small.

e.g.

u/R011-Jr · 1 pointr/cars

First of all, nice job swapping IRS in to your '96

> I've had my Mustang long enough to see it go from "Oh my god, I can't see out of this thing!" to "Oh my god, it's so open and airy in here!"

I felt the same way initially with my Mustang, but then I installed this wide mirror. Works wonders on rearview visibility (just make sure to strengthen your rearview mirror's balljoint - it's a heavy mirror):

u/djrey002 · 1 pointr/SubaruForester

Not sure if you're still interested or not, but I ended up going with this product as a clip-on mirror attachment and couldn't be happier!

Broadway BW845 270mm Type-A Convex Mirror

u/lowRMS · 1 pointr/Chevrolet

You can try this device:

https://www.amazon.com/Cellet-PH600-Holder-Adjustable-Samsung/dp/B006BIQBMQ

as for rear view mirror I personally use this (Before anyone starts talking down for a JDM product in an american car I own a 2016 9th gen Malibu myself and a former Import owner (Honda/Kia of 10 years):

https://www.amazon.com/Broadway-BW845-270mm-Convex-Mirror/dp/B0040DVL6U/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=broadway+mirror+270mm&qid=1563900718&s=gateway&sr=8-4

I personally own the extended version of that cup holder but the slimmer version is probably more suitable. The aftermarket mirror will show the whole rear window along with the rear passengers. Initially things seems a bit smaller but after a while (10 years for me) the mind gets used to it.

Like all things. Practice makes perfect.

Happy Driving.

u/TheCarHer · 1 pointr/GolfGTI

I don't have many blind spots in my MKIV, but I have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0040DVL6U/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_lPWLub0Z9V10E

I hardly ever have to turn my head back.

u/DrKronin · 1 pointr/cars

This mirror is excellent, and it takes 30 seconds to install. Unless there's some crazy feature you actually want out of that OEM mirror, the Broadview will be better.

Just make sure you measure the distance between your visors and pick a length that will fit between them, otherwise you won't be able to lower the visors.

u/Coffeezilla · 0 pointsr/whatisthisthing

He was not right. It is not a bike compass, it is automotive accessory made by Bell Automotive. A division of Bell, but that is not for bicycles. That is the point I made, that is why I'm getting downvoted, because he can't handle being told how he's wrong.

u/mayor_ardis · -2 pointsr/bicycling

I have experienced many collisions with cars as a cyclist. Sometimes I have been nice and "let them off with a warning" so to speak. I have always ended up wishing I could hold those drivers accountable for my losses later, when the adrenaline wore off and I was feeling less charitable. You say your back wheel is rolling fine, but unless it's exactly as straight as it was before, you have experienced a loss. Your wheels, and your knees, only have so many hits in them. My advice if you experience a collision with a car:

Don't make any promises or definitive statements while under the effects of adrenaline. Qualify anything you say with vague statements about doctors or lawyars. Lawyers? Yawlerws? My spellcheck's busted. Damn noscript probably.

Definitely make them stop exactly where they are, put the car in park, and turn off the engine. If they don't do this when you tell them to, cut their tires to prevent hit-and-run with your handy carry knife. If you even let them pull off the road, they might just drive away and leave you holding the bill for your wheels, legs, frame, spine, helmet, and skull. You're allowed to use reasonable force to detain them while you gather their information or wait for police to verify their insurance status.

Once you have their driver's license, vehicle registration, and insurance card in your hand, let them drive off the road. Car people behind them are probably honking mad by now. How dare you inconvenience a car person! Car people are very important.

If they have those documents and everything looks legit, continue on your errand and call their insurance company at a time convenient for you. The driver will probably use this as a lesson to drive safer i.e. actually come to a stop where required, so they won't immediately need those documents. You can retain them for now.

If they are missing any of those documents, call the police (non-emergency) and get the driver checked for warrants and their insurance verified by a cop.

> But I wasn't prepared with the exact right words as I was all adrenaline and no brains. What should I have said?

It helps to have a script. I'm so used to yelling “you too” it's just instinct now. Your line after you drop your bike right in front of their car and walk up to the driver's window is “Put the car in park, please. Turn off the ignition. Put the car in park, please. Give me your license, turn off the ignition right now, please. Give me your license, your registration, and your insurance card.” If you have to repeat that more than a couple of times, start cutting rubber. In the comic book version, you'd already have your giant wrench you carry everywhere in your other hand and you'd be breaking glass too. In real life, I don't know how you'll feel telling a jury you were forced to dent every body panel and break every window and light on car, in order to prevent hit and run, because you felt threatened. We can dream, anyway. Cutting their tires actually makes them stop though, so that's clear cut self defense.

Ask them if they're still living at the address listed on the license, like a cop does. It freaks them out. Be wearing rear view aviators and a construction vest and be chewing gum for maximum effect.

And as always, if you feel threatened, do whatever you have to do to defend yourself. The roads should be a safe space.

Hi! First i want to say thank you!

I'm a Venezuela based artist, living here is hard since there is an economic crisis. Anyway, I have a friend, his father died two days ago, and he is kind of suicidal. I would like to buy him a graphic drawing tablet because he is a good artist too, and I can afford living in this country with my current job, i just want to help him raising money, since he will need it from now on.

And if it is within your heart, i would like a panoramic rear view mirror for my car, since i'm blinded of one eye and it would help a lot while driving.

No need to pay the shipment to Venezuela, you can send them to miami and i can pay the shipment from miami to Venezuela since it would be more expensive for you.
