I won't drive a vehicle wihout those tiny mirrors. They work great for seeing close in, like the lane markers and when you are parking between the lines. They offer more sweep than the rectangle convex one

As far as mirror adjustment, I keep mine so the very edge of the tail-light is visible. So pretty much none of the truck is in the mirror

You may think you don't have a blind spot, but put your truck 6-7" taller like mine and you'll see...well rather you won't see. There is a good 2 ft area that morons in little cars like to hide in. Right by the rear tire/bumper


Didn't even think about yanking the fuse. Thx guys. Simple and elegant solution. Bonus of no wiring

 

You people must be made of cash or something. <$4 if you look around.

Clips on using a small metal tab and a screw. Works perfect to see where the back truck tires are rolling when driving around curbs and parking spots.

 

why cant you mount the mirror, on the smaller one?

 

4" lift on 35s here and no blind spot. That area by your rear bumper is where the lower convex mirror should have coverage. If it doesn't, then you don't have it adjusted properly. You might have all of them aiming too high.

 

As far as I can tell on my 2000 the lower convex is not adjustable. But mine is older and not a heated like OP.

 

They are adjustable, but they can get very stiff if left in the same position for a long time and you can break them with enough force.

 

if I didn't have the tiny mirrors, then I would adjust them the way you describe.

right now, I hve the rectangular ones adjusted so I can see into the lanes adjacent to me. the extreme edge shows the tire, but the major sweep of the mirror is for the next lane.

that way the tiny round mirror handles all the close-up 1-2 feet away from the body veiwing.



I'll try to get a shot using my camera to show what I mean when I get off work tomorrow.

 

I disconnected mine on my 06 and hooked it to one of my upfitter switches!

 

Shake & Bake, I like those Cbetr mirrors. I looked at their site and ordered a set. I have an 04 6.0 dually and haul a 29' flatbed with a big a** John Deere and like to see quickly if some little car is sitting on my butt when I want to change lanes. Thanks for the great info. These will greatly improve the OEM mirror, which is the best mirror I have had on my last 3 duallies.

Worth the money if you tow.

 

Those are what I had on my 99 F250, loved them and never had to worry about the glue failing

 

never had an issue with the glue failing until I got these super cool always heated mirrors. There is a pair of those mirrors still on my 1994 F-150 that I installed 7 yrs ago. Not bad for $2/pair.

I re-installed the mirror and used good 3M double sided adhesive stuff today. Didn't pull the fuse though. I got caught up in re-wiring my backup camera. Fuse is on the agenda tomorrow while I'm installing the clearance lights

 

I agree with shake and bake. I love'um Just came back from 4500 mile trip with 5ver and they were well worth the money. Jim
