Yeah I agree, I mean it will take a fair amount of "thinking" to process where exactly that moving object is that you might see in the reflection of the reflection of... well you get the idea

As for SUVs etc there's another version (which makes more sense to me), in fact I was thinking it would be awfully awkward if the one I first posted actually created it's OWN blind spot that blocked the view of something...

Ah that's these?



I never knew the name of them LOL

Which might be better the wink or this 17" one:

Hey, I'm sure there's a way you could rig the SUV model ones to work as your internal side view mirrors for a mirror delete.

Looks like a good install of wink mirror

Both mirrors look useful! The Pan is lower key, and your visors will probably work better for forward sun assalt.
A female passenger might be overwhelmed w the Wink; especially if she's Blond! (I couldn't resist! LOL!)

I haven't had a Wink in several years, since having a 240Z; but unless they have updated, I don't think there is a provision for a night setting! Anybody; correct me if I'm wrong.
JC Whitney used to sell static cling window tint patches. I always thought one could custom cut something for quick on/off on the Wink!

I think the Wink in daylight is hard to beat. Many racers swear by them; its incredible how much you can see!

Yeah, but I wouldn't use them that way. I would turn my head as I am backing out.

would depend on the size. but would be good to install them on the windshield then use them as side mirrors.
