So, a blurry couloured blob in the mirror = don't pull out.
Another good technique, where possible, is to change lanes at full throttle. Makes it hard for them to hit you. :tongue:

You might be half joking, but I seriously do this everytime now. I've had so many close calls in the Roadster (where I didn't see someone) that I always go full throttle when changing lanes now. If there's no room in front of me then I'll just slow down a bit first. I need to get those curved side mirrors that you guys are talking about.
I was more than half joking. I do goose the throttle every time I change lanes in traffic, unless there simply isn't enough room to do it.
The Multivex mirrors are a must-have, IMHO. Set properly, there's absolutely no blind spot if you check the mirror and look over your shoulder.
I fitted mine yesterday; There's a whole world back there I haven't met!
Just ordered the multivex mirrors as well. With my mirrors adjusted the new way (talked about above), I'm not sure if I need them but everyone seems to love them so think it's worth a try.
Me, too! I removed the foam strips and used RTV silicone to get a closer fit. Perfect match - and I watch cars coming up and when I lose them in the mirror, the nose of the car is visible to me.
Could you walk me through the installation (and let's pretend I have no idea what I am doing)? I understand that you completely removed the foam strips on the back of each mirror (I have 3 per mirror). For the RTV Silicone, did you use a product like this? Permatex RTV Silicone Adhesive (80050) - Automotive Adhesives - Ace Hardware As best I can tell, even the back of the multivex mirror is concave so how did you attach the silicone? Did you just put it on the outer edges of the back of the mirror? Or did you apply the silicone to the entire back of the mirror even if the entire back doesn't touch the existing mirror? Any other advice? Thanks!
If you decide you don't like them, can the RTV be easily removed? Thanks.
