Default anyone tried this? 5 Panel Rear View

okay i will keep stating that im coming from a completely different car scene...one thing we do with hondas is, we install 5 pannel rear views...it looks pretty, is VERY effective cause you see EVERYTHING and is simple... heres a couple pictures of what it looks like to have the pannaramic view mirrors in a car

they're cheap!!!! like 20 bucks if im not mistaken...they are normal golf cart rear views..the way we install them into hondas without making new holes or damaging the headliner is to remove the fold down sun visors and install the bolts in its place

im sure if someone take a tape measure to measure the width between the 2 farthest apart holes in the headliner for the visors...these should be just as easy to install in Z's as they are in hondas

All that would do is let us see our headliners and interior better.

LOL i guess...im very weary when i drive, constantly looking for flashing lights behind me, or when im weaving traffic my rear view helps me get those extra inches closer making that cut. its funny i guess because the way i and the rest of my team drives....in other states its very noticable how were very "NY" i will post some videos soon of the street scene here in NY...i undersatand many of the "older" men are into the Zs...no offense, but im sure with time you'd see a very different style hit the Nissan scene

It sounds like your one of the many cumstains in their stock SI's that try to race me in traffic. Why dont you stick to your scene.

Dude, looks great, I think multiple side view mirrors on a Honda would look great too.

With your factory mirrors adjusted properly you can see everything too. Without adding a bar of mirrors to your car.

lol, okay first off, its not used in AutoX cause in autoX no one is chasing you......you look ahead at your next move, not behind you to see if Rowdy Burns is on your tail.......LoL...


It's a Nascar thing, and in general a road racing thing.....where there are chase cars...

I doubt our headliner mounting would be an option for our cars as its too far back and above and even if it did mount at that location, you would just see headliner.....so for the Z it would probably take more mirror mounting.

noooo lol way off...had a 95 hatch shell gutted out, built b series motor...made 13's easily..but no more hondas...they get stolen too much.

but like i said to each his own. just seeing what people are into. usually any other car scene would laugh and ridicule bodykits but im adjusting to not make comments about them. i like cars to look clean and oem while still being able to kick your *** =].

but like i said before to each his own. what you may not like now, once it becomes the new "thing" you will jock ride later
