T1R Side mirror lens installed ! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

AJ PwR · 09-26-2012, 03:36 PM

I had my BRZ for a few months from now, I found the stock mirrors has a lot of blind spots so every time I lane change, I have to shoulder check several times before I can assure plus the rear side window is pretty small so it made by life tougher

T1R offers the blue wide mirror lens (CONVEX) to improve vision approximately 40% so this is my solution. Bye bye to blind spot

The mirror comes in a blue tint finish so it reduces glare from cars behind you !

Installation : It's simple. It directly tapes onto the existing mirror. The tape which comes with the mirror lens are strong so do it one time do it right !

Here's some pics to show the product and the install (Before and after) :

* This is the view of the stock mirror*

* This is the view of the T1R Blue wide mirror lens* The angle of the view varies by the adjustment you made on the mirrors.

Great item. We got a couple of these on hand for a video review a bit later. Nice stuff as always from T1R.

How much?

I was considering developing these because i didn't want to run the little round spot mirrors....glad I don't have to now... I really hate glasswork

Looks great and it's a good idea, but unfortunately these would then render my side mirror defrosters useless...

just use arctic silver thermal paste when installing them

...1/2 kidding...

Jeffboyarrdee · 09-26-2012, 05:30 PM

So that was what I was wondering too. Is it $99 for each or a pair?

Jeffboyarrdee · 09-26-2012, 05:31 PM

Also, are these removable? Or should I say removable with minimal damage?

They should come off with a little work. Dental floss behind the mirror to separate the tape.
