Default rear view mirror option

I installed pigspotters on the bike a month or tow ago, and decided i loved the look of them, but didnt like how much i could see out of them. I advise anyone not to get them...but i found a way to see behind me and still use the mirrors. Tell me what you think. Ill get more pics up when i cut the tail and install it flushly above the taillights. Later

How bright would that even be in direct sunlight? I'm not sure that's the answer on a sunny day. That's also not an outdoor screen, I'm guessing. Doesn't look to be. Get it rained on and you're all through... Get it stolen, same outcome.

if you like it man thats all that matters. myself it seems a little dangerous to be looking down to see behind me, imo. you can glance over your shoulder quicker.

about the glare....it has a anti glare, so too bright...it turns black and white and dims. And about being rained on, stolen, it comes off. haha U think im gunna leave it on there with idiots out there? Ya it is easier looking behind me, but i commute 120miles a day, so looking over my shoulder gets bad lol

both....straight from the battery, and inline fuse. But it only uses power when pluged in. disconnect it, no power.
