It didn't meet the DOT crash rating... some minor paperwork design thing that wasn't compatible rather than anything really safety related.

But easy enough fix in due time. Just get one from Japan eventually

As tempting as it may be, I don't think I could break from my Napolex Broadway 300mm convex mirror. Also has the blue-tint at night when lights come at you, doesn't hurt your eyes! Talk about having no blind spots.. and it's just a clip-on!

Can you still put your visors down or do they hit the broadway mirror on either side?

Are these also powered auto-dimmers? If so, I'd like one

I am quite use to getting blinded as well in my MR-S... Sucks to have a car so low. Having the frameless is a nice touch, but I think I might go with the factory option with the auto dimming feature.

That's actually a good question. I want to say that they do but I can't remember if I had the mirror on before I fiddled with the visors. I will check on that later when I leave!

I have a 300 mm convex broadway on mine it clears but just barely you can position it just right so both visors clear. This way very important to me as most of my other cars wouldn't and theres nothing worse than flipping down your visor and screwing up your mirror lol
