would this also work on a rear view mirror arm in a car? Seems like it would but wondering if anyone has actually done this?

It could if you had a rolled pipe rail to clamp it on to and a mirror with the same diameter ball as the housing. Why don't you find a special boat mirror that that has a long arm that screws into the fiber glass?

We are stretching it now! If there was some person that could attach a 1" ball socket to a rear view mirror, this little guy would attach a wide angle mirror to an existing mirror on a truck or handlebars. I think they make the ball mount on a suction cup and again, if you have a mirror with a 1" socket, it would work.

Yes it works on either side, I have mine on both sides of my car. The trick is rotating the mirror until it provides a clear view of the passenger side traffic. If I knew how to include a photo in this post I would show you how I set them. They are great blind spot mirrors to have just go to http://www.autobahnmirror.com/

it can fit pretty much on any car.....the back part of this unit has an adjustable clip that attaches you your existing mirror....it works pretty good...the installation was a bit hard, but not bad......make sure you charge the unit first.....then connect the wireless adapter....the wireless wire needs to get power from the reverse wire when the car is in reverse.....after that just play with the menu to link the mirror to the wireless unit

It snaps right onto the rear view mirror, so if you move your rear view mirror, yes it also moves.

No. Not & still look right. It clamps over the rear view mirror. They sell a similar system w/ a dash mount screen for less money.

I have it in my Subaru Outback. It is designed for behind the drivers seat. However, I can't see why it would not work behind the rear seat. Assuming you have head rests on the back seat it should work. It has straps that connect to the head rests. You will also need to have something for the bottom straps to connect too. Is there a reason you would not go for a product designed for back seats instead of this one? It is well made and sturdy either way.

In my SUV yes. This is why I don't use it permanently. If one keeps the visors between the windshield an the mirror it limits the mirror's adjustment for optimal view It also depends on the size and mounting of the visors. Many users are very happy wit it

mounts to the mirror and you will need wires to connect to the mirror. Be sure not to scratch up your mirror holder. The "mirror mount for radar" has really small yet sharp teeth to grip on to the mirror Bracket. So just a fair warning. Also it's built so well, that you could probably stop someone, from trying to high jack your car by just beating them with it.Good luck fellow amazon shopper! And remember not to speed because you can die.

Arthur, I had one of these mounted on the rear view mirror arm on my motorcycle. Although it is a fairly tight grip...I wouldn't rely on it, as my phone vibrated off on an uneven stretch of road one day and took a tumble along the freeway and was smashed to smitherines. I don't feel it's strong enough for the use of a motorcycle IMO. Hope that helps!

Bracket that comes with mirror is made to grip existing rear-view mirror from top and bottom. You could fabricate a simple "hanger" that would slip over the top of the monitor and support the mirror. This would probably look pretty tacky.

When I was first looking at reviews for this great mirror I saw where some people were having trouble fitting this to their mirrors when they had Onstar and things like that. I have a standard mirror and it works fine. I think if you can contact Car Mate maybe they can answer your question. I love my mirror and it does what it says and it is good quality and gives me very good visibility. I hope it can work for you!

Absolutely. I just used this to hold up my rear-view mirror in my car, and it held amazingly!!! I would imagine it would hold even better on wood because wood is more coarse, and it would have more surface area to hold to. It is definitely the best option.

It really isn't about what brand and model of your car but rather the type of mirror you have installed in your car. With that being said this mount works on almost every mirror. Do you have a HomeLink mirror installed? If so yes.

Unsure. Works great on glass. I have mine right under the rear view mirror. Smooth texture dash... very likely.

I have used the mount in a couple of cars. The Pontiac has a "mild-curving" dash and it works there. The other car is a Subaru, which has a center dip in the dash, and although this area is not flat the mount works okay. The underside is rubbery and sticks to most surfaces.

Yes, this will work. You will get two mounts in the package. One will fit your mirror. If it is made of plastic, be very careful. It is easy to break the flanges. I tried the plastic first and had to re-order when the flanges broke as I attached the mirror to the mount I had stuck on the windshield. When I re-ordered I got the metal mounts. Much better. No problems with them.

They are ment to replace any model car rear view mirror, but all car mirrors are not wired the same, this is one of the main reason the On Star manufacturer suggests that it be installed by a professional... although it can be done without having to pay someone, I did mine and I'm no mechanic, just a basic do it yourselfer.
