Do these guys eliminate the need for rear windows? Some dumbass got my soft top dirty. I'm too poor to buy a hard top.

It helps. It's cheap enough that you should go get the adjustable ones for a few bucks more.

I have these on every car I own.

I hate blind spot monitoring, its at best 97% effective and its that 3% thats gonna get you.
>>28652528
that pic is a retarded overexaggeration, you should barely see a small bit of your car in your mirror. Even if you do adjust it so never see your own car, you end up creating another blind spot and lose all reference in the reflection.

>that pic is a retarded overexaggeration

>you should barely see a small bit of your car in your mirror.
No, you should not see your own car. You should know where your car is. You're in it.
>Even if you do adjust it so never see your own car, you end up creating another blind spot and lose all reference in the reflection.
What the fuck are you talking about? You have only gained more vision of the road around you. The amount of your mirror taken up by THE VEHICLE YOU ARE LITERALLY INSIDE OF does not provide you any useful information. Every single bit of the mirror you gain back by not seeing your car is more vision than you had. You have not created "another blind spot" you fucking moron.

and it's too much, retard, you do not need to see your own car in your mirror. Your car is not going to sneak up on you while you are driving it.

why are you looking at the sky behind you when you should be looking at the road
>>
>>28652569
Yes I do.
I need a solid reference point.
Moving the mirror that extra 1 degree isnt going to solve the blindspot problem. only convex mirrors can do that.

What the actual fuck does this mean? Your reference point is that you are in the car.

>>
>>28652581
your head and eyeballs move and you see a different reflection each time. if you dont know what its reflecting in relation to your car, you lose your reference of where that car is in relation to your car.
idk why this is so hard to understand.
>>
you'll never see a convex mirror on a formula 1 car
>>
>>28652585
if you were going faster than the cars behind you then you don't need mirrors at all

Blind spots don’t exist on cars. 99% of people have no fucking clue how to properly adjust side mirrors. Blind spot mirrors are for semis and pickups towing huge trailers.

Don't some Jeeps have side mirrors that only rotate on one axis?
>>
>>28652616
Blind spot alarms are awful and useless in practice

Relying on them is much worse than relying on two extra mirrors
>>
>>28652575
go buy yourself a mirror too
as you can see traffic jam right in front of him, blind retard
>>
>>28652643
If you're too stupid to use two mirrors, you're too stupid to handle four mirrors. At least with the nanny alarms there's a chance it will alert you enough to stop staring at your phone.
>>
>>28652650
>traffic jam
>half the lanes are wide open
>absolutely no backup behind him
even if there was a "traffic jam" there, he'd have had to pull his phone out and start snapping pictures within about a second of stopping for there to be no traffic behind him like that.

Also, GET OFF YOUR FUCKING PHONE, WOMAN.

Overlay them yourself. Is this graphic telling me to unfix my mirrors and stick them somewhere lower?

And how are brown countries doing? They couldn't survive without foreign funding, because fewer responsibilities for women means weaker women, thus a weaker gene pool long term.

You can easily lower Wrangler mirrors with a kit but I don't see a need to do it. The graphic still sucks.

>t. doesn't use blind spot mirrors

I've always had my mirrors pointed such that a small sliver of my car is visible on both sides. Didn't even know I was retarded, never had problems with blind spots
>>
>>28652373
I'd say no. I prefer them to blind spot monitors tough.

My car has a slight truncated boattail shape so it makes sense to adjust them like that.
>>
>>28652523
Yeah dude, go ahead and do that and you'll never need one of those shitty mirrors again.
If a big portion of what you're looking at in your side mirror is your own car, it's adjusted wrong. You don't want to see your own car at all, except maybe if you really stretch your neck. You'll then never have a blind spot, and will still be able to gauge distances with parking by moving your neck (assuming you use the mirrors to do that)

My mirrors are too narrow, I want some that will let me see the ground when I'm reversing without me needing to adjust them every time.
>>
>>28653396
You should be able to see the ground already with a properly adjusted mirror. Why are your mirrors pointed up at the sky, retard?
>>
>>28652540
>look right to check side mirror
>see green car bumper through passenger window
did the retard who designed this image not understand how mirrors even work?
>>
>>28653694
Probably, unless there was originally additional context to that image where it was being used to show you can get even better mirror coverage by realizing that you can have a small gap between what you see in your rearview and sideviews without it being large enough to ever fully miss a vehicle, as is shown here >>28652709
>>
>>28652373

>man who forgets where his car he's driving is if he can't actively see it in his mirror calls other people retarded
>>
>>28653605
If i had them pointed down enough to see the ground then I wouldn't be able to see other cars.
>>
>>28656699
are your mirrors the size of a coin or some shit? even the flat ones from 90s toyotas still let you see both the ground and traffic around you if you angle them right.
>>
>>28652634
>Blind spots don’t exist on cars.
They do though, you can't see through body panels.
>>
>>28656699
Okay let me rephrase since you're a fucking retard. You should be able to adjust your mirrors such that the field of view they give you starts just beyond the edge of your own vehicle and just above the ground, giving you a full view of the area to the side of your vehicle and ABOVE the ground.

It should not be necessary for you to actually see your own vehicle or the ground itself in your mirror. Neither one of them is going anywhere.
>>
>>28652373
I like it when people use these because it's an easy to spot visual indication they're bad drivers
>>
>>28652373
There is an advantage to adjusting it the normie way in that you're able to see much further behind you in the left-adjacent lane without having to move your head, good for giving yourself more margin when brown people decide to dive into an open passing lane going 100+.
If I'm in anything but light traffic with good visibility I'm going to be extensively head-checking anyway sometimes before the blinker even goes on. Ironically normshits don't bother with this at all even though it would take advantage of their setup because they feel invincible in their insured 5000 pound cages.
>>
>>28652373
Only the blind spot mirrors that you install on top or bottom of the stock mirror casing are best aftermarket mirrors. Not those blind spot mirrors that you install on stock mirror glass.
