I'm gonna go against the grain here and say right place. It will take a real monstrosity to turn me off of huge tires on normal cars.

Hold up. Is that a working odometer over on the right by the rear axle? And maybe a speedo on the left that's not quite working?

Sadly, the mystery of how someone could slide off a road way up in the mountains in snow and ice is unsolvable.

It doesn't seem like there's any snow or ice on the road. Maybe he just tried to park there. I've never heard of Kaminari but apparently it's a pretty old body kit company and they're still making models from the 80s and they're very        https://www.theautopian.com/it-turns-out-you-can-still-buy-brand-new-rad-kaminari-body-kits-from-the-80s-and-90s/

Hood mounted mirrors, like pop up headlights, were too good for this hell world.

Pretty clean kits, not too over the top. Haven't seen a J30 Maxima for a while!

I mean I get why they don’t do it anymore but hood mounted mirrors fuckin rule. They were insanely handy when you’re driving a semi, basically no blind spots

McTinkerson posted:Hood mounted mirrors with convex lenses are the best. With regular glass, not so much. I am kinda shocked more vehicles don't have an inbuilt convex mirror on at least one side. Driving 1 to 5 ton box trucks in the US*, the convex mirrors are what I use the most in traffic, with flat mirrors adjusted very close to the vehicle for backing up to a dock or along the side of a building. It's even better when the truck has a look down convex mirror on the off side. The little stick on rotatable convex mirrors are mandatory on my vehicles, unless it's a 1/2 pickup (which are wide enough that it doesn't matter as much). *Chevy 3500, Ford F-350, Isuzu NPR , Mitsubishi FK, International 4000-series

There's a hole in my front fender where the now useless antenna is, and i was looking at putting a mirror there with convex glass. The 70s continental sedans had mirrors similar to mine, but made to mount on a horizontal surface. My passenger mirror is useless for anything except parking.

Isn't that why passenger side mirrors (GM in particular) always said "objects in mirror may be closer than they appear" it was a sight convex/fisheye mirror

Hadlock posted:Isn't that why passenger side mirrors (GM in particular) always said "objects in mirror may be closer than they appear" it was a sight convex/fisheye mirror Isn't that a parallax issue? Your eyes are far off center from the passenger side mirror, making it difficult to judge the size and position of whatever is reflected if the mirror is adjusted "out", away from the vehicle.

Someone with a mid 80s GM sedan chime in here. I spent probably a thousand hours staring at that message

It is a convex/fisheye. Only on the passenger side - hence, the warning. I used a wide-view fisheye clipped over my inside rearview in my 65 Fury because of the plastic rear window, giant A-pillars (convertible), and no passenger-side mirror. I then used my outside mirror to check the distance of vehicles, because of the distortion. The Bonneville also only has the one driver's side mirror, but I drive it almost exclusively with the top down. I still occasionally do the old habit of: *check inside mirror* *vehicle coming up fast* *immediately checks outside mirror for distance* (they're the same, d'oh) I never liked wing mirrors. To me: Disturbs the body line.
