[Healeys] Rear View mirrors

[rfbegani at gmail.com]

Sorry Richard if you cannot expand the size of the picture, however you can see how it is out of your sight when you are behind the wheel.  Also, the original mirror is no longer in your line of site.  Once you obtain one of these mirrors, you will have to get use to wetting the suction cup to hold it on the glass while driving.  Also, while parked in a hot garage it will lose its grip and fall off the glass.  I have thought about gluing the cup to the glass..  If you obtain one let me have your comments.  Meanwhile, I love the opportunity to view 90 plus degrees behind me when driving.

I know this will sound good for most of our Healey owners, however finally I got tired of trying to see the 2 mirrors on my front fenders and the tiny one on the dash.  First, I tried clip on panoramic mirrors on the dash mirror.  Not very good as they kept falling off and were too low really see behind.  Next, I tried a panoramic mirror attached with a suction cup, but it kept fall in off the window.  Finally, I found the best mirror for seeing behind and the sides.  It had a great suction cup with the ability to tighten the fixture, so it was really locked on the window, although I is not glued to the window.   Also, the panoramic feature allowed me to raise it up to the top of the windscreen.  I bought it from amazon:

 

Bittwee Car Rear View Mirror, HD 360° Adjustable Anti-glare Adjustable Extra Wide Automotive Panoramic Rear View Mirror with Suction Cup, Interior Decor...

 

Also, I removed the original mirror from the dash so I can see ahead and the sides of the road..
