MC-71 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Can you guys view these pictures. I’m having trouble with the signal working behind the convex mirror that is the right side. I know the glass is concave but not much light comes through. Had these Dorman replacement mirrors trimmed out at a friends glass shop years ago. I’m wondering if I can sand just where the arrow sits. I hate to be wrong because this glass has “objects in mirror are closer than they appear” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Have you tried them it the housing ?? A dark background will probably give them better contrast. Much like the newer "emergency exit" signs, led lights show up better when in a dark background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC-71 Posted June 3, 2022 Author Share Posted June 3, 2022 Good thought. I will try that. Picture number 2 is the flat glass and goes on the drivers side. That works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC-71 Posted June 3, 2022 Author Share Posted June 3, 2022 I did try that. No better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Is it possible to get the right side as a standard mirror ??? You're probably right that the shape and thickness has an effect. Don't know that I would sand it, might damage the reflective surface and make it useless.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC-71 Posted June 4, 2022 Author Share Posted June 4, 2022 That’s why I didn’t go any further. Years ago I thought it would of been cool to have a convex mirror with the writing on it. That mirror came out a few years after our Monte’s. I have on order a 4 1/2” stick on signal lights that I can stick on the bottom of the sport mirror.
