Perfect Side Mirrors – A Great Gift for My Brother!
I gifted these side mirrors to my brother for his car, and he absolutely loves them! The quality is outstanding, and they fit his car perfectly. They’re not only durable but also have a sleek design that really enhances the look of his vehicle.The mirrors provide clear visibility and help with safer driving, especially when changing lanes and looking at the blind-spot before moving off. My brother is very pleased with the easy installation and how well they work.It’s a fantastic gift, and I’m so happy I chose these side mirrors for him. If you’re looking for a high-quality upgrade for your car, I highly recommend these!

It is easy to adjust
SM1 is top of its class for someone who has a limited ability to twist his neck when joining a major road. I have had at least six over the years.Pros - it is simple to fix to the wing mirror without blocking any part of it. It is easy to adjust. It will rotate 360 degrees horizontally and a far amount vertically so it will leave you no blind spots. No other similar product is comparable.Cons - It is plastic rather than glass and the clarity does not last indefinitely. I suggest buying two at once. You need to remember to take it off before (not during!) the car wash. At nearly £6 it's fairly expensive - why not sell it in packs of four for ?£12? For geriatrics, adjusting from the normal wing mirror to the little one can be a visual challenge. It can scratch the surround of your wing mirror and is vulnerable to pointless theft, so always have a spare inside because you will get to rely on it. Halfords in Workington doesn't seem to stock it any more (in favour of inferior substitutes) so plan ahead if you have one which is getting worn....I have thought long and hard about how the design could be improved but can't think if any way unless a manufacturer is to include it as stand on a model and have it controlled internally electronically, in which can it could usefully be bigger....

Recent examples have distorted image
Have had and successfully used at least six of these over the years - very satisfied.I last bought two on 27 February 2022 as spares to use in case of theft of those on vehicles.Just needed to deploy one in the last few days, but found that both that I had bought, had imperfectly formed mirror surfaces, causing reflected image to be badly distorted.Quite disappointed because previous ones had been fine.

Secure and reliable
I’m a driving instructor, and have been using a pair of these mirrors for about a month now. They’re more convex than the main wing mirrors, which means that you can see more of your blind spot in them, but what you see looks even further away. As long as you accept that, and use them simply to register that something is there, they’re very useful, probably more so at lower relative speeds. On the motorway, for example, I use them in conjunction with a “kiss the parrot” check before shifting lanes right and left in overtaking manoevres. I also use them at slow speeds like at multi lane traffic lights to keep an eye on neighboring lanes.The only reason for the four stars is that the surface of one of the mirrors has a small defect that distorts an area a couple of millimeters square. No great problem, though. The fitting is strong, and the mirrors are rock solid at motorway speeds.

Good view for blindspot
I’m teaching driving lessons for my family member and this is very convenient to see the roads and blindspots. The fixing was very easy and firm to the side mirror with the given screw.

Poor quality
I've bought these twice, they last about 10 months then after one winter the mirrors become all tarnished. The actual concept is great but the mirror quality is very poor. Won't be buying again

Looks good on the car, but when it comes into contact with foliage it tends to pop off.
