Blind spot mirrors...

TranMan409 · 07-10-2004, 12:57 PM

I just bought a CIPA Hot Spots mirror...I just wanted to know if it was too big or too small. Its 3.75"/95mm. This was the only one they had at Walmart except for a really small one. So overall is this a good mirror size?
And where should I place it...all the way to the lower right corner of the mirror?

I don't remember the size that I got, but they were pretty small.
I did place them on the lower outside corners of the mirrors and they have helped me tremendously merging in Atlanta traffic.

The first two weeks of ownership I almost hit a couple of cars while merging to the right because I could not see them at all.

I put the ones for my standard SE mirrors on the upper left; that way you can see curbs and other low stuff coming toward the truck as you back up. I tend to like them in that spot for all the cars and trucks I've owned.

But it's your truck and your preference.

Just my 2 cents worth.
