A fab experience

Simondi · 27th June 2010, 18:44

I (with the help of my pal) fitted an auto dim mirror about a month ago.
Now since then I have not driven when its been dark. So does it work

who knows!!!!!!

Anyway last night my daughter had been at a ceilidh in Stirling and I had to go and get her round about midnight. Off I drove and before long a car came up behind me with really bright lights, before my eyes the mirror changed and I was no longer dazzled. Fantastic, why are these not fitted to all cars as standard

I'm so glad I got one fitted, its brilliant.

They do sound great, wish I had one although I never drive around in the dark! (Well don't often and don't often have people behind me)

Think its the cost over something you can just press and it goes down.

Still I would love one, for the novelty more than anything though.

they are a great bit of kit,along with the rain sensors but after a while you take them for granted.

Rain sensors, now THOSE I want, I don't like having the wipers doing too fast and of course can't have them going too slow so I change the speed constantly while driving in the rain.

I've been considering the auto dip but have limo tints so would it be a waste of time

My connossieur is more or less and SE now so that would be a worthwhile project.
