Fitting was important

I needed an inexpensive rearview mirror to replace my pontoon boat but was having trouble finding a mirror that would mount as securely as I wanted. The installation on this is excellent. The only downside I've found is the quality of the reflective mirror itself, as it's not completely flat or distortion free like a street mirror, but still does its job well.

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Don't buy if you want to see behind you.

I installed this on my 2015 Honda Pioneer and it was absolutely useless as a mirror. It vibrated so badly that I could only use it to see behind me when the engine was off. The main problem seems to be the arm's weak attachment to the mirror head - there's no way to tighten it without it vibrating like a coin-operated motel bed. Very disappointed - thought I was getting a quality product based on a famous brand.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Not the best

Cheap but works for Rhino

I was skeptical of the stuff and read the reviews before taking a chance. The design is good, but the plastic, including the cheap mirror material, makes the product worse. However, I gave this thing three stars because it fits my Rhino when installed correctly. It came without instructions and with a hex head screw that was too short instead of a square head screw. Easy to fix and I found the right parts in my tool box. Once you tighten it and set it with the correct bolt length, it works well

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Speed

it was very easy

I modified this mirror to fit my Polaris Ranger 900, it was very easy to do. I really like this mirror and the different ways it can be adjusted sideways, up/down, tilt etc. I would buy it again and recommend it to a friend. The only reason for only 4 stars is that if you look at the size of the mirror itself compared to the 'rod' or bar that attaches the mirror to the bracket, you will see that it is smaller at the end of the mirror becomes. Which, in turn, causes the mirror to "shake" at low…

Pros
  • everything is great!
Cons
  • Weight

Sorry no stars no option, zip ties were used

this is a lousy design and the clip doesn't work to hold the mirror to the roll cage as advertised. If you have one, use two zip ties to attach it to the roll cage if you buy them somewhere like Harbor Freight (I wouldn't even buy a tool from them, but for such things as zip ties, they will fit)) Zip ties are so cheap that the mirror can still be considered removable. Just keep a couple of nail clippers and half a dozen zip ties in your glove box. Wrap the cable ties around the clamp, one on…

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • there are bugs
