anyway guys,
anyone changed the side mirror before? i feel like my current gen2 side mirror sux0r~!!!
the blind spot is very great and sometimes i really just cant c cars which are beside me.
and ill have to look infront n at the mean time cut left/right before i miss tht turnin..n u guys know lorr, msians demm selfish..ppl put signal they purposely tekan somemore even when they're goin slow in the 1st place...
even when parking time also, the side mirror cant seem to b able to b low to look at the ground and at the same time high enough to look at cars. if i adjust high i cant c any parking line when wna back park, and if i adjust low, those car i can only c btm part of their bumper
anyone experiencing the same thing? lol

Yup, Every dang time i have to park the car or change lanes, i put in a small blindspot mirror to help with parking, when changing lanes have to turn the head

lol
rc din thought of changing mirror ah?
or change also cannot cure still

bro wat do you mean by leak?

u experienced it before?

It's a design flaw, they have to redesign the mirror completely or change the driving position

reporting in.. lenno/AT 1.6/dune

want to ask u all something, the rear bonnet is tightly fixed in place when it is closed right? mine is a bit loose and i can shake it a little.. it make a lot of noise when driving..

any DIY can be done to fix this? no time to go shop cause got test..

thanks

I attached the fish-eye mirror to minimize this problem. But a bit dangerous until you get used to it. First because you now have more view points to look at. Second, because in an instant moment u might only look at the fish eye mirror and use it as the reference. An object will look further in this mirror thus giving u a false distance and speed.

Yes you can it's easy, there are two screws you can loosen on the catch to move it either up or down, moving down makes it hold tighter and up looser. What you want to do is loosen it slightly so that it's still tight but the catch can move, then tap it downwards with something heavy gently to move it a little at a time. Then close the bootlid and check, keep doing until you get the tightness and still you don't need to slam really hard to close it. It takes a lot of patience to get it right, but don't release the screws fully and you'll have hell of a time getting it right again. Once you get the tightness you want you can wrap some elctrical insulation tape on the catch for some extra sound dampening, but get it right and you won't need it

ohh.. i think when i send my car for repair they did loosen the whole thing up. Going to have big headache.. haha

so its nothing to do with the two square rubber thing at the sides right?

The rubber help to hold the boot lid if it's tight enough, but can't adjust though

thx a lot for the help. will try to do it soon haha

The lock can also be adjusted but i've never done it before, usually just the catch is enough

is there any kind of reinforced tape that can sustain better upon impact?

hey bro can give me moe detail.. thanks bro..

faced this prob b4...i just used the black one which they tape to wiring....

can the tape last long?

my fren suggest me use small diameter rubber hose. dunno can find hose with similar diameter or not...

You can try using the aquarium air hose, but it might tear pretty quickly
