I just removed my 5-panel Wink mirror from my Jeep- while it allowed me to see behind me and to the side [and was handy with a canopy/topper on the bed], it vibrated too much and just never felt right, even with almost a year in the truck. I picked up a Broadway mirror to go over the factory one I put back on, but it's almost worse than the Wink since everything is so small. I'm sure if I fashioned some sort of center brace for the Wink it would have not vibrated so much, but to each their own.
