Whats up everybody!
so i had an idea the other day... My rear view mirror is great at night... its really nice to have that dimming feature... but the side view mirrors are worse.. the bright headlights chine right in my eyes...

so i was thinking about getting some of that amber, or yellow headlight film and putting it on my side view mirrors.

I think it would look great, and really cut down on the headlights shining in my face.. or at least make it easier on the eyes.

anybody know where i could get this material??
thanks!

 

ebay or a sign shop with vinyl. It needs to be transparent. I bought some off ebay and needed more the good thing is i found the manufacturer and the stuff is oracal 8300. I googled this and found a sign supply that has it in stock and bought a 20"x36" piece for $5.
Good luck, Doug

 

oh and yellow is REALLY yellow so be forewarned.

 

awesome!
thank you so much! and yes i want really yellow!

ha
thanks!

 

Nice idea, but you might want to check out this article for a better mirror position.

thanks I'll check that out!

 

very interesting! thanks!

 

It really helps with the MINI because of the tiny rear view mirror.

 

this article from Car Talk is one of the best things most drivers can do for themselves. With this setting of the mirrors you should have almost or no blind spot.

 

even more the reason to shade my mirrors.. now i'll never catch a break hahaha

 

just did the adjustment! wow! its awesome.. zero blind spot! thanks for that heads up!

......and the cars behind you don't blind you with the side mirrors !

 

I have been dealing with this company for 3 years now. A+ company. http://lamin-x.com/ecommerce/os/cata...500c2ef226066d

Fast ship, excellent product, does not fade/crack/peel/or become brittle. They sell in bulk sheets as well, which is what you are looking for in this application.

 

awesome thanks!
