Why does the signal mirror have a sight line? Is it removable?

I was just trying to figure that out today while playing with mine.It does not appear to be removable and therefore quite useless on this device.

It is used, aptly, to sight in on the target you are signaling to make sure they will have a clear line of sight to your mirror. The "flash" from a signal mirror is not uniform so the more you have it directed at the target the better they will be able to see it.

There are cut outs that allow for the amber turn signal lights on the bottom of the mirror to be visible from behind.

Yes. You attach the mount that came with your detector, minus the suction cups onto the Mirror Mount. The detector can be remove from the mount by pressing the release button on the detector and sliding it off just as you would now.

Just get one that peeks out over the top of your vehicle and you should be fine. Line of sight to other vehicles helps a lot.

if I have the right connector, it was flat white connection, with three flat contacts (pins) and with three wires coming out (red, white, black) the other side. I had a picture but can't copy to this posting. this may explain why the mirror only moves in the horizontal direction now. I tried to splice wires to make it move vertically but to no avail. Also, the mirror cracked while cleaning off at a gas station a couple of months ago. I don't think it is supported behind it too well.

I would have to look at mine.. but I dont even have mine mounted.. I have it under my console and get good reception that way.

My best guess is time and light reflection. It is a combat sight and if you use both eyes the red dot still appears to your brain even when the front cover is down and you don't really want that chance of reflection, off the glass 100%, of the time. You can take off the front and place a honeycomb cover on it.. the best option

Hi Danny, once mounted to the wall/fixture, the braket is still able to be adjusted via the 2-axis linked braket to get the desired viewing angle. Hope this helps

It can be hidden, it does not have to have a direct line of sight. It actually has a pretty good range.

Yes...there are 2 wing nuts to secure mirror position. So with your back to another mirror, you can see what you are doing.

I usually have this little helper laying on my car's center console, if that is what you are asking for. Otherwise use the included windshield suction cup, preferably high on the left side of the rear view mirror so it won't interfere with your field of view.

No, the antenna is the snaking trace opposite the pins. Works great, no idea how far it goes. I've never lost signal.

It is a chrome piece that helps reflection of LED's. I don't think it's removable.

You can see the reflection in the windshield without the film, but you may have difficulty reading the display on the unit because it's backwards.

Yes it does, a windshield model. I'm not sure I would want this unit on my windshield, It would create a large blind spot.

Yes it does. I had it on one for a bit but moved it to a place with better visibility.

As you close to your next way point, the unit (like most new gps units) will mimic the photo to the left. However, I'm about 95% sure that this unit is not split screen. I installed this unit in my car about a year ago and it works great!
