Question about the "Objects in Mirror" etching and custom stickers...
A good friend of mine bought some of the cool little stickers that go on your side view mirror lenses and say "objects in mirror are losing" or "objects in mirror will soon disapear". He put his on over the factory etching, and in the right lighting it looks good but if you look at it from other angles it looks like jumbled up lettering. He gave me one of the stickers to put on my car, but I'm curious as to what you guys have done with these stickers to make them look good. Not really sure I want it on the driver's side because nobody will see it over there. It's more of a novelty type thing to entertain passengers in my opinion. What have you guys done?
Thanks

You can buy new mirror glass that overlays the existing glass. The new glass has no original writing.

That would an option. Just remember that the outside mirrors have heating elements in them - not sure how putting an extra layer of glass on them would affect their performance if the heating function was needed.
