Having a car lurking in your blind spot can spell disaster at a moment's notice. Stay safe and avoid collisions with these aftermarket blind-spot mirrors for your car or truck.
55mm Convex Glass Blind-Spot Mirrors
$12 BUY NOW
Starting with the very basic, these simple and functional round convex blind-spot mirrors provide a fisheye view of what's hiding in your blind spot. These glass mirrors aren't the cheapest on the list, however they are less likely to distort or fall apart compared to other plastic options.
Feca Suction Cup Blind-Spot Mirror
$11 BUY NOW
The nicest thing about this blind-spot mirror is the fact that it can be removed in situations where it isn't needed. We're sometimes skeptical of suction-cup-mounted anything, but Feca specializes in suction-cup technology — so if anyone's going to get it right, it's them.
Interior-Mounted Blind-Spot Mirrors
$8 BUY NOW
When mounting to your exterior mirrors isn't an option, these little affordable mirrors can provide a simple solution to your blind-spot problem. We aren't quite sure what they're referring to as "touch closure strips" as means of fastening them to your rearview, but we suspect that installation should be fairly simple and straightforward.
Allstar Performance 4 Panel Wide Angle Mirror
$15 BUY NOW
Designed for the racing world, yet somewhat practical for daily driving, this four-panel mirror gives its driver a wide field of view without having to use their car's wing mirrors. Thanks to the use of four flat-mirror panels, drivers won't have to deal with the loss of depth of field either, which is always a plus.
K Source Blind-Spot Mirrors
$2 BUY NOW
These K Source mirrors are about as cheap and simple as we could find. At $2 a piece, we make no guarantees to clarity or longevity, but for the price of a cup of coffee, it would be worth giving them a try.
Clip-On Side-View Blind-Spot Mirror
$9 BUY NOW
For cars with somewhat compact side-view mirrors, sometimes sticking on an additional blind-spot mirror just isn't a good choice. These clip-on units provide the blind spot protection drivers need without cluttering your standard side view.
HR Adjustable Blind-Spot Mirrors
$7 BUY NOW
Depending on your vehicle's design, sometimes a plain mirror stuck onto your current wing mirror won't quite cut it. These affordable rectangular mirrors from HR have a ball-bearing joint installed to allow a healthy range of adjustment, making sure your blind spots really are a thing of the past.
BL Super Wide Angle Rear View Mirror
$43 BUY NOW
Another way to make blind spots go away is the use of this extra-wide convex rearview mirror. Spring-loaded retaining clips allow it to latch onto your car's standard rear view mirror, and its broad 330-millimeter surface will give you a much wider field of view than a standard mirror.
Crimestopper Universal Front and Rear Blind Spot Detection System
$115 BUY NOW
As an interesting alternate to the cheap mirrors, this sensor system replicates the built-in blind-spot detection systems available in most new cars today. Mount the warning lights in the general vicinity of your wing mirrors, and avoid ever having an unexpected visitor in your blind spot when trying to change lanes.
Custom Accessories Low-Profile Blind-Spot Mirrors
$13 BUY NOW
These slim blind-spot offerings are great for tiny sports car mirrors. Their ?-inch-thick design also ensure that they don't stand out as a piece of aftermarket equipment.
Rearviewsafety Digital Video Camera-Based Blind Spot Monitoring
$250 BUY NOW
Tech geeks will love this camera-based blind-spot monitoring system. Comprised of a seven inch LCD display and a high-quality camera with infrared capability, this system allows the driver to monitor their right- or left-side blind spot by only having to glance at the center console. This is a feature that Honda started using on the new Fit hatchback, and we hope to see it become more prevalently used industry-wide in the not-too-distant future.
Adjustable 2 Panel Clip-On Blind-Spot Mirror
$12 BUY NOW
Back to the basics for our final entry: This clip-on blind-spot mirror has a pair of adjustable panels for a wider field of view. With a quick nudge of the mirror, you can look wider or tighter for assistance with tricky parking situations as well.
Ensure smart, safe driving with these blind-spot mirrors for your car or truck.
