Hey guys, as the title says, I got the 240mm blue convex Broadway mirror today from 247motoring.com

It doesn't quite fit with the sunvisors as they the top corners of the mirror just catches the visors. You can open the visors, just not to the point of touching the windshield. Oh well its winter time now and i don't think they'll be in much use anyways

Anyways, here's some pix of the stock mirror compared to the convex one. I haven't taken the car for a drive yet with the new mirror so I can't comment on the shaking that some of the older threads mentioned, but I'll update once I take a drive.

UPDATE>>>

Ok, I drove around with the new mirror and its pretty cool. I can see a good portion of the blind spot just by looking at the mirror. The only odd thing is that things do seem to be "zoomed out" but that just takes some getting used to. The blue mirror also is great at night time to block off some of the glare from those huge trucks or HID's driving behind you.

 

Very nice. I just put one of these in my xA and am very happy with it.

 

I'm not sure what size I have, but it's a convex, blue-tinted Broadway.



The only problem I had with this mirror was it's size. Every time a passenger would lower the sunshade, it would hit my mirror and it took me forever to get it positioned just right. My solution? See below:



I rarely have passengers, so it's not a big deal. I filled the hole with some silicone stuff in case any spiders were looking for a new home. :D

 

i like very mucho, but one question, does it like clip on over the old mirror or is it a replacement? if it clips on does anyone know of a replacement like this one?

 

This is a clip on mirror, not a full physical replacement. I personally don't know of any full replacement mirrors that are convex. There are those dimming mirrors, but they are about 10x the cost for a brand new one.

 

I just got my Scion xA and I put a Broadband 270mm Convex mirror into it from my old car. Fits fine with no hitting of the sunshade. I could probably even fit a 300mm. Makes it very easy to see now.

 

300mm wold be a tad too big. your visors would hid almost every time, if you ever use them Oh and this is just for the xA. The xB is diff. and the TC prob as well.

 

Must be thread revival Thursday!

 

Hey I might have been wrong Some one with an xA says they have the 300mm and it fits, hmmm

 

now im getting one of these for sure. gonna get the 240mm, but need to figure a way to make them not rub

 

i just got a 400mm
