ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:
http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=144
Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      i have one but that's not mine in the picture.

      to keep your visors you could do 2 things:

      1. use the windshield mounts
      2. use two sets of the side mounts and link them together

        cool beans im sure some ppl think they are dumb looking.. but i got 5% tint in back and 18 on the sides, ill take better visibility

        does anyone have any recomendations on what size fits the cb best? 4 panel or 5?

            I'm sure you could find something at home depot or lowes for cheap that you could modify easily. after all, it's just a flat piece of thin metal with holes in it

              i would assume it comes with two.. for each side i mean. logically if they want these to be universal they would need to provide the stuff to make um that way lol, worse case sceniro it could mean a trip to the local hardware store.. im sure that link is not a hard to find piece

                But to each their own. Just my opinion, don't get mad or flame me cause I won't argue.
                everyone gets them because of the NO BLIND SPOT thing.

                      I've seen these...they look pretty ridiculous in cars...even in trucks they are an eye sore. Why don't people just adjust their mirrors properly? Oh...because they are taught not to in every drivers ed class and subsequent safety course I've ever been in.

                      Sort of one of my pet peeves...instead of doing things right we fix the symptom.

                      Their method:
                      They tell you to have your side mirrors JUST so you can't see the side of your car. You put your side mirror so you see the side of your car, then a hair further out. What this does is make it so you only see a car in the side mirror if it is about to literally touch your rear door or fender...basically it's set up so you only see a car in the side mirror if they are cruising LITERALLY 2" from your rear pass door...what purpose does that serve?

                      My method:
                      My side mirrors are almost all the way "out"...not quit...but almost. Doing this makes it so when a cars front bumper leaves my rearview mirror it is entering my side mirrors (1/2 of the car is always in my peripheral vision), then as the ass of the car leaves the rear view, the front enters my side mirror. Next, the front is in my side window and I can see it with my eyeball no mirror...the ass of their car is now in my side mirror...visible with peripheral vision...no head movement on my part.

                      I don't know what moron keeps promoting the other method...if a car is RIGHT beside your fender it's too late...with MY method...I have zero blind spots...any/every car is always visible without me turning my head no matter where they are. And I don't need ridiculously wide rearview mirrors

                      but if super wide rear view mirrors are your bag...cool
