| Hey guys where can I get a good rear view mirror? I have seen some in the 100 bucks range but that is a bit much I think. I ordered some 4pt harness and I know I will need a rear view for sure after I put them in. Thanks | |

| How about a great one for 5 bucks, a lot of us use the munchkin mirror in the baby dept of walmart. goes on the roll bar with a radiator clamp. This little mirror is great, extends, adjusts and even can be folded up if need be. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] | |

| it comes with a mount that has a slot in it and you just use a radiator hose clamp to attach it to the roll bar. Ive ran one for over 2 years so has chrisc they are great. | |

| Thanks for that link gunny. I looked at all the local walmarts here a few months back but couldn't find on but now I can order it online. an excellent alternative to spending all that money for something so simple. | |

| I hate to say...but i threw the $5 mirror as far as i could..in the closest wastecan...i couldnt even look at it, because of the VERY convex lens...it would hurt my eyes if i looked at it for a couple seconds. I went to the automotive section at WalMart and found an automotive car replacement mirror that works great, and you can mount it secure I think I paid around $10-15??...the munchkin will move around when in rough terrain. | |

Not trying to take credit for finding it, just saying we both use one... The idea was from ridepate, it was a great find by him and it still is one of the best bang for the buck mods ive done. As for smith 700, he must have bought the wrong one, cause the one we use has very little convex to it, guess he bought the double the convex model (inside joke) | |

| There's a big difference in a mirror on a RZR and a Rhino,the RZR does not vibrate the mirror like a Rhino does.. |

| I bought 2 of the Wal-Marts, one for me and one for the passenger. I attached using zip ties. I go through all of them on the rack to find which one is the tightest. Some will swivel to much. You put a drop of silicone on them to tighten them up. I have not had to do that. You just need a mirror big enough to see if your follower is behind you!!!!! My buddies can all see out too, having 2 mirrors!!!!!!!!!!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |
