Blind Spot Mirrors

I’ve seen similar products here on the forum, but information and detailed pics have been rare to non-existent.

I stumbled on this item at the brand new Tractor Supply store in my area.

They work perfectly and I am 100% pleased with them. They are labeled as a “top mount” addition to your outer mirrors.

I found it much easier to mount them to the bottom of my 2017 Taco.

I would expect they would probably fit earlier generations, but I don’t have one available to verify this.

The Tractor Supply number is 1102923. The package is labeled CIPA 49805.

Coming in at $12.99 each, this is a no brainer addition to your truck.

Post pictures after install on your truck.

 

Seriously I had more issues with actual blind spots in my 2014 Honda Civic than I do with this truck. The mirrors on this truck are a dream when positioned properly. If you can see any part of your door or the bed of your truck from any side view mirror, then YES, your mirrors are not set up correctly.

 

I was guilty of having my mirrors too far in for a long time then decided at a stop light to play with them and adjust them until I can see the car sitting next to me in what was my blind spot. Haven't moved them since and has made a world of a difference in boosting my situational awareness. No ugly clip on mirror required.

 

Blind spot or wide angle mirrors have more uses than to tell you if a vehicle is beside you on the highway, especially when backing into tight spaces or backing trailers. I'll have to take a look at these at the local Tractor Supply.

 

So I don't have the link from Amazon but I did some of these on my wife's subaru crosstrek and on my tacoma. They are held on with 3M tape and these are actually adjustable.

 

Where exactly did you install these things? I picked them up but am having a hard time finding a good place to install that gives a good view. Thanks.
