    Reading that question is confusing

    Do you already have blind spot mirrors?

    Yes. Just don’t stick it over the indicator.

    How are these holding up? It mentions the blind mirror part moves independently, are they tight to move (i.e. so they dont move easily own their own).

    They stay in place pretty well. Honestly I only got them because I shattered my stock mirror, but I do like these a little better. They do the job.

    I just came across these today on Facebook. How difficult was the install? I feel confident enough about the splicing of the two wires, but I DO NOT feel confident about removing those mirror caps!

    Its actually not that bad at all but i removed my mirror caps numerous times. You can actually get the same exact mirrors on aliepxress for $60. I knew thats where he got it from but it didnt show up yet on the site. Ive ordered other things on there and shipping time is actually pretty quick.

    I went with Spotter Mirror. A lot more expensive but it has an adjustable blind spot mirror built in at the bottom of the mirror. Check out their website,
