Now I can see how close I am to vehicles, curbs and/or trailers when backing up. Very helpful, highly recommend this.
Well the mirror is still stuck onto our GLK 350 rear window and in great condition here in Canada; it made it through all four seasons, from summer through to spring.
It has been useful for hitching up our tent trailer and for parallel parking so as to not bump the vehicle behind.
One consideration to have before buying would be that the distance in view behind the vehicle is quite limited. To use it effectively the vehicle needs to be moving very slowly. This is not really a backup camera substitute but rather a trusty tool for trailer-hitching and slow, careful maneuvering.
Mini vans before reversing camera are no longer backing up with a blind spot directly in the lower middle. I have seen many mini van with a dent on the rear facing door and I immediately know what the cause was. Blind spot! This mirror is awesome.
As always, the ordering process from etrailer was flawless, shipping was fast and the item was well-packaged. The mirror and hardware are all high quality, but it didn't provide much help aligning my 5th wheel hitch to the trailer when I attached it to the truck rear window. I have a sliding rear window, so I had to attach it off-center on the window, which put the image of the hitch on the edge of the convex mirror, causing it to be so distorted that I really couldn't tell where the trailer pin was in relation to the hitch.
I removed the mirror mount from the rear window by sawing through the adhesive pad with fishing string, applied some double sided trim tape to the mount and reattached it centered on the pin box on the trailer.
The image of the hitch is less distorted now, so it does provide some help, but I don't think it's optimum. It is a fairly low cost option that might be OK for some folks, especially if you can attach it to the center of your window, but I think I will eventually mount a camera back there.
I was very happy with the item. I did not expect it to be of such good quality. I will be using it to guide my 5th wheel rv onto the hitch. I have a supercab f150 and cannot see the coupler from the driver's seat.
I will definitely use etrailer in the future.
Great product. This will save serious time hooking up, fully adjustable. Will also save many trips in & out of the tow vehicle. Thanks again.
Still good as new. No complaints.
Although I followed directions to the letter in applying the mirror, it fell off within 2 months. Not worth the money I spent on it.
