These are supposed to be for a ford, but they fit and work very well. They are beveled (thick at the top outside corners) and give very good view of the blindspot and even some rear coverage with proper aiming.

The pics that get uploaded directly to the post are store in a way that they need to be small in file size and only in gif, jpg, jpeg or png. Bit maps are not compressed so the take up a lot of space.
Something of that size needs to be uploaded to the gallery, then you can link to it.. Or convert the image to a gif or jpg and I'm sure it'll go. Sorry

Surge, except for the fact that they fit nicely into the corner of the mirror, are they any different from the regualr circular and rectanglar stick on blind spot mirrors?
How about a part number, manufacturer, price, etc? I use the round one that rotate so you can see up, down, sideways -whichever is more helpful to you but I like how these look and they are bigger without being overwhelming.

I think they're the perfect compromise between round and rectangular. Also, they're thicker at the top outer edge. After comparing to round/ rect., I think the added spacing at the corner gives this mirror a better viewing area. AND it's the perfect size.
Pretty sure it was PEP Boys. I'll post pics of the package tomm.

You're welcome. These are stick-on as well.
They were out of that model Steelhorse @ PepBoys but had a similar one that was $2.99 each. Made by Custom Accessories, Niles, CA called Blind Spot Mirror p/n 71118 - I think the larger size is going to be helpful as between the very dark tint and small circular ones I had, I had to really check hard for vehicles at least on the passenger side.

I think I looked at those and test fitted too. The wider Blind Spotz mirror lets you swing the factory mirror out farther for a better view in the factory mirror. I think the bevel on Blind spotz is different also. It's tapered from the top outside to the bottom inside which gave me a better low and rear view.
Yeah, I bought just one to test and am finding this one does not aim down and in towards the blind spot as much as I would like. It was getting dark when I put it on so will test more tomorrow.
