🔍 CIPA 48852 8.5 Inch Stainless Convex HotSpot Mirror Review

At first I thought it was good for what I was using it for BUT then coke came in and water seeped into the mirror, froze and the mirror broke! Revain replaced the mirror but I wouldn't buy it again

Mirrors were added to my tractor some time ago but they were standard mirrors from a local auto repair shop. They helped, but rusted after a short time. These convex mirrors greatly improve rearward visibility. I can't say how they hold up yet, but I hope so.

I am very happy with this mirror. It is made of high quality material. While not that big, it's very handy for spotting oncoming traffic as I placed it at the end of the driveway to create a blind spot for oncoming traffic. I highly recommend this product.

We used to have to open the front door to look for packages. We installed a peep hole, but the viewing angle isn't wide enough to see the bottom of the door. We placed this mirror on the porch railing and now with a quick peek out the window we have a great view of the entire area of the door and more. We are very happy with that!

I suspect the seller is simply using the appearance of stainless steel as a selling point and relying on the lack of clarity to trick buyers into believing they are buying a durable product. Easy to install, good hard ball joint shouldn't drift. Good mirror finish. It's about the aging of the elements. There is no drainage hole. I was talking…

Purchased to replace rusted 8" mirrors on my 1993 Ford Aeromax dump truck. Works like any convex mirror. Provides a good field of view and helps eliminate that large blind spot. The taper and price are definitely better than the mirrors I've found at my well-known local parts stores (except for the mirrors at my local NAPA store, but the price was almost 3 times the price). Summary: - Brilliant 8.5 inch round convex mirror. which reflects images and provides a wide field of view - Yes I would…

I replaced the factory flat mirrors with these. I can only say WOW! I can confidently support my 1997 27ft Class C RV. I see at least two lanes of traffic when driving and changing lanes, which helps A LOT! They look a bit different than the rectangular truck mirrors, but seeing all the movement around me is everything. I ordered black ones to minimize possible reflections that the chrome ones (can) cause. It's such a pleasure to see what's around you on the factory mirrors. Of course, objects…
