"Wink Mirrors"

[Moose_Gumps]

Thinking about getting a wink mirror to help eliminate my blind spots, but heard they can be hard to adjust, etc.

Does anyone have these/have experience with these? what are the pros/cons and a good website to buy them from?

thanks

So at night you can tilt it up? I never really looked into these mirrors.

Just checked into that, do you have to loosen both sides or just the side you are sitting on?

What is a wink mirror, nevermind I'll google it. Anyway I have a broadway, it's badass.

Winks are most effective when positioned properly. The mounts they give you doesn't allow for this positioning. Also, you lose your sun visors. You'll need to fab up some mounts to make it work properly, but when done right it actually does eliminate almost all blind spots.

if you keep the far side just loose enough to reposition then you only have to move the driver side :thumbs up

I have a wink mirror and I must say I love em! and I do not miss my visors.. The mirror itself is a visor. Adjustment is not difficult at all. LIke dude said you either move them up... or down... And when it comes to blind spot... lol... I almost want to get rid of my side mirrors because I dont look at them much.

^^just my .2cents for ya^^

Meh, they take so long to make right that I don't really make the mounts for people unless they're my friends and sweet talk me.

The original Wink Mirror is available for $21.99 on O'Reilly's website and in most stores (I work at one up in Huber Heights, OH). The Mount kit is $5.99
