Yes very useless hahaha. And I too want chevelle or Camaro round mirrors. This one will do for now. I did have those huge trailer mirrors but they had to go.

If it's a tow rig... then these are kick ass.

But man they are fugly!

Brad · 02-03-2008, 10:08 AM

I've had 'em on mine for years and got use to them after a few months. I just wish that someone made a rectangular shape peep that was chrome and not billet aluminum. I find that I only use about 2" of the whole 4" mirror. Also, I mainly use my side view mirrors to see the blind spot and have them pointed as such. I use my rear view mirror to see behind me 90% of the time.

With a new project coming down the line I may go with the same mirror that's on my '68 Camaro. The mirror has the same curve as the body line on these trucks. However, I have gotten used to, and prefer looking up at who's behind/beside me as opposed to down when they're mounted under the window, so we'll see...

Deuce · 02-03-2008, 10:24 AM

Peeps with a twist.

wibilly · 02-03-2008, 10:39 AM

dieselarmy13 · 02-10-2008, 02:41 AM

Mooneyes has some pretty cool visors for the four inch round mirrors that I'mthinking of putting on mine.

**smitty62** · 02-10-2008, 03:27 AM

Move to North Carolina--you won't need 'em. NOBODY in NC looks in a mirror!
