This weekend, I bumped my rearview mirror while cleaning the windshield and the mirror popped right off. This isn't the first time (one drawback to owning the car since 1988, some "only once" repairs are coming around again).
I'd rather switch over to a mirror that comes off of the center visor mount, I believe that Dr Evil and JWest have offered options over the last decade. Is anyone out there providing bolt-on solutions these days? Are there very clear instructions (including specific donor info) for someone to make their own? Thanks in advance for any leads on this. |

This has been interesting to follow since a taller driver says the mount higher helps... I lowered my to help and I'm 6'3"... It may have some to do with suspension set up too and the stance of the car.
Another factor is not only the height, but if the visor mount is closer to the driver, that could make a difference too. I like the idea of the visor mount mirror, but I made my own visor mount that actually holds my little Escort Radar Detector. Great place for it! |
