Not on the Z they don't.

We don't have the luxury of rear passengers windows :(

Got a massive mirror on the kluger / highlander and it does help in that situation

It really isn't all that bad. I look over my shoulders to see my blind spots before switching lanes and i back out slowly out of parking spots. If anything i think s2000s with soft tops are a lot worse than our 370s....IIRC

Check, check, and ... check.

top down=what blind spots?:icon17:

Frost, he can see the future

Well that sucks

woo school bus mirror! ;)

i have a wide angle mirror i use in the garage to keep away my indian neighbor down the street in green yaris. :icon17:

fix your side mirrors:

Slowly start passing something big (house or something).

As you see it in front of you [through windshield], keep moving until it's by your side: it will be outside your side window. It should not be in your mirror's view because that's a waste of mirror... you can see it through the glass by turning your head.

As it passes your window, it should now start to be visible in your side mirror all the way through your blind spot. When it leaves that mirror view, it should now start to be visible in your rear view as you've passed it completely.

Adjust your mirrors until all of those things happen.
Does someone have that diagram of what I just horribly explained? :D

It's understandable, my only problem is i run out of adjustment on the side mirrors. I can't turn them out as far as I would like.

ITS HUGE!!! how can you see out the front windshield with that installed?!

No kidding. The friggin' mirror causes it's own FORWARD blind spot!!!! :eek:

Frost was right on the money. Yep. Frost gets to give you all a big :icon23:

Personally, the looks "don't bother me none," so I'll get some little round convex "rotating" mirrors and stick them on. If you like to adjust your main mirrors way out (which I believe is the way they should be), then the convex mirrors still offer 2 things: help with backing up the car next to things like curbs etc, and a double check for general objects like cars etc when changing lanes. If you like your side mirrors in so you can see the side of the car, then the convex mirrors show your bigger outside blind spot. To each his own. It certainly doesn't hurt anything to have 2 mirrors, at least not for me, and it gives you options. I'd rather be more comfortable and safer than worry about whether some total stranger thinks they are ugly or not. This isn't Jr. High School, it's the open road full of bad drivers.

dude, the Z has horrible blind spots, i bought the convex mirrors, it doesnt look bad, but even then im still very very cautious changing lanes.

Just inquired about the Craftsquare mirrors. If they are still available, I may get them early next year.

Don't fix the blind spot issue.

The blinking side-marker is actually the solution. It lets the driver/car whose at your blind spot realize that you are bashing over onto his lane.

See, the R&D team at Nissan is so Brilliant!!!

:tup::tup:

True story. I signaled to change lanes and was leaning a little and I got honked at. They let me know they were there lol

I still have no idea what blind spots y'all are talking about...I have perfect visibility when I'm on the road, and I weave like crazy on the highway

:icon18::icon18:

It's more like this: Once they are behind the door, they no longer exist; therefore I can't hit what isn't there! :tup:

I've never had a problem :P

Just make sure the car(s) behind you does not have a blind spot on their forward view.

LOL

:tup:

I dunno, ive been thinking about the blind spot for a little bit... Im just going to stick to closing my eyes and cutting the wheel hard every time i make a lane change:driving:

Here is what i have decided after much experimentation..

I put the right side mirror as far out as possible.thats it for that mirror

Then. i move my head to the left while sitting in the drivers seat and adjust the mirror on the left side outward until I can just see the left side of the car in the mirror

Now I put one small square wide angle mirror that I bought at the auto store on the bottom right side of the left hand mirror to show any vehicles close by and and on the left..usually this is a problem when merging into traffic..

i used to have a similar mirror on the right side mirror but that turned out to be dangerous IMO since it led me to believe i had a wider view of objects to the right but that is true only in theory,,.,yes they are seen in the mirror on this side but they are incredibly small because of the wide angle view,,.bottom line is that from the drivers seat you cant see them and that leads you to a false sense of security..

Those are my thoughts...

Kind of ironic our cars are more dangerous going backward at 5 mph
than forward at 100 mph.

oh and that was not on a public road.

I just run the right side mirror as far out as it will go then I installed a small rectangular convex mirror in the lower left corner...it seems to cover the blind spot ok. No problems on the left side...when an approaching car leaves the rearview it appears in my left side mirror,:ugh2: I do still take a quick look over my left shoulder before I merge left. My problem is in parking lots backing out of a space:eek:. I've found if I move the passenger seat forward a little and use the little window I can see down the lane as soon as possible for the right side but I still feel I can't see a car coming soon enough. I guess you gotta figure there is only six feet of car when backing out...maybe less. I don't like the feeling but I'm not gonna quit taking the Z to the store...:icon14:

I now have e-mails sent to SpeedElement, a site called Nengun.com, and Endless USA (who are listed as authorized sellers on the craftsquare.co.jp official site) regarding those mirrors, it is something I would like to do in the next few months if I can find a way to get a pair of them.

Jack

Let me give you my experience

I put the extra mirror on the left side. I put the large left mirror out just far enough so I can see the side of my car when I move my head a bit to the left..if I put it further out another car could be close behind to the left and out of sight if the mirror is too far out. My way does leave a blind spot on the far left so I put the small mirror on the lower right part of the mirror. It provides a wide angle view which I need mainly when I am entering a highway because the car is pointed in such a way as to leave a blind spot to cars already on the highway.
( hell!! a diagram would make this all so much easier!) Our ways do seem to both deal with the problem effectively in two opposite ways. I might try yours just to see..Thanks for the idea..

I found that putting a small mirror on the right hand side doesnt work because the mirror is on the other side of the car and this added distance means the cars appear so small they can barely be seen. I had one there and it created a false sense of security for me. And moving the passenger seat is a problem when you have a passenger with you..

A real problem occurs when I am traveling down a road and it intersects with another road on the right but not at a 90 degree angle.. but something less almost like merging ..very difficult to see the on coming cars. Then I need that little window and even then its risky especially if there is a passenger in the car.
That's when I ask the passenger to check and I check my insurance policy!!

What do you think?

Charlie

Couldn't agree more Charlie...we're having the same problems. I plan to put a small rectangular convex on the driver's side mirror just to cover the "over the shoulder" area. On the right side the lower left position of the convex has actually become my go to when I merge right. For the low angle crossing intersection I find myself turning to almost 90 degrees just to make sure.
