![]() | Probably comes from being a lorry driver Steve and relying on the mirrors to drive it..... ![]() Folks nowadays just don't pay enough attention to mirrors..... ![]() Remember the one at the top of the passenger door that points downwards? The one that stops you running over cyclists? I doubt with lights flashing in the mirror that even a clown on side lights would be seen.... ![]() Don't get me wrong here....they look pretty.....and I can see the attraction....but they are not something I would consider are safe top be on the road in today's traffic.....sorry....

![]() | I can see both sides of the argument - personally i'm a bit of a magpie and anything out of the ordinary attracts my attention. I suppose it depends on how bright they are - if you're looking at an object that's in the arrow bit then you put the indicators on, are you still able to see them? And if not then what's the point? But still, it's another bit of kit that I've not seen anywhere else so i guess the seller is doing one to test the water

![]() | not all vehicles have side repeaters,and some a******s only decide put their indicators on when your halfway round them,so if the mirror has an indicator built in this would give a little more warning of their intensions,as motorcyclelists tend to look in vehicle drivers mirrors to see if they are aware of them passing,which a lot of them are not ![]()
