Get rid of those blind spots, Cabrio owners. These mirrors do the trick and then some.

I saw The Fab Faux for NYE last night. Anyone who doesn't know FAUX, ought too! http://www.thefabfaux.com/ Go see them if they come to your town; this is not gimmick, as these guys can play the heck out of this great music. I've seen about 5 of their shows and each one was better than the next. Relevancy? The next to last song of the night was - DRIVE MY CAR!

Give it a shot; I'll even consider a trade for something I might use one day. These are truly great mirrors, so maybe you got a spare part I might like. As Monty Hall used to say (I'm showing my age now), "Let's make a deal!"

WOW! I cannot believe you folks don't know how good these mirrors are or you'd be all over them. I wish the original buyer of my first set, who bought in one day, would drop in here and testify!

I bought the first pair

Yes, I bought the first pair and as long as this thread has been going, I should probably buy the second set just to close it. Makes me feel bad that no one buys them, maybe I paid too much. I like the mirrors, but did not use them on the Mini. I have a diesel truck and put them on there. The truck likes them. I thought that maybe they were a little big for the Mini mirrors. Just my thoughts. they do adjust nice.

Considering they are both new (unused) pairs, you could not have paid too much for them. They are only available from the manufacturer (from what I've seen and been told) and they charge even more for them. I just ended up, through my own devices, getting additional sets. I do have a set on my Cabrio though -- it is not like I didn't use them. Thanks for supporting the thread with a positive review, but certainly there is no need to end it with another purchase; although by all means a set belongs on your Mini.

Maybe you should take a few more swipes to add to your own total. I'm at least trying to move a quality and brand new part. What is it exactly you are wasting your time on?

Feel free to be that "someone" and make an offer to save everyone here the trouble of reading future bumps.

quality? just throw them in the trash... for that price you could go to autozone and buy something that works just as well in bulk.

and my intentions have changed, i think the new goal here is to get the maximum views out of this thread possible without them ever selling

Your ignorance is showing, if you think the ones at Auto Zone or similar stores are anything like these, so just keep adding to the thread and showing off your smarts. Besides, like you said, even the negative bumps keep this on page 1 of the marketplace, so please keep them coming.

All family members have them smartA**; feel free to donate your $25 to save your own life though, as I need much more mockery in mine from such well endowed wits. Frankly, I don't know what I would do for laughter without you and the bomber.

OK...I've held on for long enough...

Those of us that don't buy this have probably adjusted our side view mirrors to view the side of our cars. We have also adjusted our rear view mirrors to view the rear of our cars. With both of those positioned correctly, you will have no blind spot. Good luck with the sale!

you should package your life saving stickers with these. I feel an infomercial coming up.... Only if you give two sets for the price of one to the first ten callers though.

Do you have a Cabrio? If not, it is almost impossible, depending on the size of the driver, to fully eliminate all of the blind spots. Just in case you actually care, but somehow I doubt it .
