Figured I better subscribe to this thread, my century is terrible this way and I'm sick of having to reach out and wipe the mirrors off just to be able to back into a spot. Curious how they work.

Rain X and sometimes it helps to do the front side og the mirror housing also.

Because you make the mirror wider by adding the weathershield,do you find that your left and right blind spot has increased much? -

Wonder if they will hurt mileage ?

I just received my Weather Shedder Shields and will put them on tomorrow. Spent the last two days at the GATS and spent a pile of money. Need to get back on the road and start saving for next year. Once I get the hood shield and door window shields, and installed, things should be quite nice going down the road. Trying to keeps the bugs off the windshield and keep them out of the cab when they bounce off the side of the mirrors.

Well we have now hit some rain with them... Some rain still gets on the mirror, but its more misty... However, it now sends the bugs and rain right into the side windows! So I would give it a 6/10... Haven't tried them in snow yet... Hoping we won't have to worry about that for a while yet!

I will admit I kinda forgot about this thread, we did try an air foil on the mirror, but as Lady K stated, it just kind of moves the crap to the side window, which of course you still have to look thru.
So as of right now, the Rain X app. is really about as good as it gets, for rain anyway.
JMHO
