Default Agent 47 mirror question

Hey there, so I am thinking about getting some Agent 47 mirrors, but I was wondering how much they cut down on vision when trying to look in them or something, I know they are smaller so just wondering if it is like a major cut back on vision or increased blind spots or anything.

Thanks

I didn't notice any reduction in viability or blindspots.

consider the CDC half covers for the mirror housings. I got them and never, ever looked back. I was in the market for the 2010 mirrors or the agent 47's. these are perfect. Agent 47's will take some work and 2010s will take some drilling.

i had the 47's on my 05, the install took about half an hour and most of that was because they didn't spell out very well how to remove the motor wiring from the stock housing and the rubber grommets. No visibilty reduction at all.

I've been thinking about the covers, but I also like the looks of the Agent 47's.

Get the agent 47s. I love mine. No problems with visibility or anything else.

There are lots of cars on the market with same size mirrors or smaller.
Remember you're downsizing from a truck mirror, lol.

Mirror motor install is a breeze to do. Its just 3 screws and pulling the wire harness threw.
