Which driving mirrors

With Clearviews available now there is no decision to make, all other accessory mirrors do not exist any more. A little bit expensive to buy but when you sell the vehicle take them off and resell, you will get nearly your money back every time.

Agree with comments about Clearviews - put them on a few months ago - stay on the vehicle, secure, very good view, no vibration - yes, expensive but worth it.

Another recommendation for Clearview. Had them on for over two years now and would not go any other way due to potential damage to door windows.

I have had the Aussie Truck mirrors and they were good also but the problem is there is insufficient room on these modern vehicle between the window glass and the wiper rubber thereby forcing the metal bracket onto the glass and scratching it with the potential to break the glass.

That is why I went with the Clearviews.

Expensive?, yes but cheaper than replacing a door window.

In a word ..Brilliant. And you don't need to remove them.

Cheers, Bruce.

Another recommendation for Clearview mirrors. Fitted them 4 years ago and have never regretted it. Very well made and fit in place of existing electric mirrors. The mirrors are two part with the top bit set by the electric mirror controls and the bottom manually. Brilliant for covering blind spots. They fold in as well which is great in those disaster areas called shopping centre carparks. Price is exxy but IMHO still worth it. My only mistake was buying the chrome finish mirrors. I wish I had chosen the black ones now. The chrome ones give off some major reflections.
Best of luck with your decision.

I tried all sorts of mirrors, the best I found were the ones that have a strap going to the bottom of the door and you tighten with a ratchet.... THAT IS UNTIL I PUT THE CLEAR VIEW REPLACEMENT MIRRORS ON MY BT50......
I found on rough roads everything else vibrates and even the strap type broke.

As the above people have stated the Clearview are the undisputed clear winners... The other advantage of the clearview is that the main mirrors are not convex, so you can judge distance when backing more easily. They can be adjusted using the electric controls and they have a convex mirror separate at the bottom so you still get a view of passing cars.

Putting Clearview mirrors on our BT50. I was not keen on putting on anything that could damage the duco, or that might vibrate so that left no other option IMHO. 'Ken exxy though! They look a bit big for the vehicle, like big ears, so will have to see if get used to the look.

I do like to see what is going on behind, so good mirrors are a priority for me. Mind you I have still backed coaches into objects though and you get a good look in them mirrors.

"A".

They do take a bit of getting used to. The first time I reversed up the driveway into the garage it looked like a drunken sailor was driving!

Hi Bob

I recently went through the same thing looking at mirrors.

The ones with the strap weren't doing the job on the GNH with the trucks moving the mirror every time they went past. They were only a cheap set though.

On one of the caravan forums the Milenco and Brunsgaard had good write ups.

I went for the Brunsgaard only because I thought they looked a bit better finished.

I have only done 2000kms with them but several triple trailers went past with no problem. They seem to do the job ok.

I have been using Milenco mirrors whilst travelling for the last 8 months. Make sure that the mounting brackets are tight on your existing mirrors and you will have no problems. Regards G.T.
