| Has anyone installed convex mirror discs on their mirrors? what size/shape did you use? Where did you position them on the mirror surface? Did/do you find them helpful and effective? where did you purchase them? Would you remove them if you could? thanks...billc. |

I had the small square 1" x 1/2" from Walmart.
I used them for awhile, but I found that I had to "study" the tiny convex mirror for some of the wider areas.
I switch to the Saeng ( http://www.saeng.com/category.php?category=61 ) Quick-Scans Body-PC mirrors that I attached to the bottom of the Honda mirror. They are more expensive, but between the quality, clarity , size of the mirror and position ... the mirrors allows me to quickly scan over several lanes very quickly.

No ... they are for my safety. I have best coverage for blind spots and can even see the movement two lanes over._________________ Bill - Georgetown TX 07 Silver Wing ABS Clearview w/vent, Givi E96/TB19/E52 with Admore Lighting, Alaskan Leather, Wrist Rests, 3M Solas tape, K&N air, Hyperpro spring, Grip Puppies, Airhawk, Utopia backrest, Stebel, Apexcone HIDs, StingerZ LEDs (w/Backoff WigWag), Knight Rider Sequential LED, NGK Iridium, Power Commander III, Manic Salamander, Saeng mirrors, Garmin Zumo 660, Dark-Side Sumitomo Tire  |
