Product Description

CIPA's line of Day/Night mirrors are the perfect replacement for your factory installed mirror. This 10 inch mirror attaches to the windshield on a swivel mount, and can be tilted to reduce the brightness and glare of headlights shining directly at eye level. The front and rear internal faces of the Day/Night mirror glass are not parallel to one another, allowing a manual tab adjustment to switch between day and night positions. In the day position, the front face is slanted and the reflective back-side provides a strong reflection. When in the night position, its reflective rear face is slanted out of line of the driver’s sight. Since the non-reflective front allows the majority of the light to pass through, only a tiny amount of light is reflected into the driver’s eyes. This means an increase in both safety and comfort at a fraction of dealer costs. Also available in an 8 inch design (part number 31000), 12 inch design (part number 33000), and a design featuring map lights (part number 36000). Fits OEM mounting on all cars, trucks and vans. Mirror mounting adhesive not included. Bracket is included. FMVSS approved. Expand your horizons.

CIPA 32000 10" Day/ Night Rearview Mirror" Review

I bought this mirror to replace my OEM mirror in a Ford Focus (the reflective surface is beginning to deteriorate around the edges after 10 years). The quality of this mirror is very poor compared to the OEM mirror. The entire mirror vibrates constantly while the car is running--the original mirror does not do this. I tightened the mirror securely, so it was not vibrating because it was loose. The OEM mirror doesn't even use a screw--it simply clips on, so tightness of the connection should not be the issue. Also, the image reflected in this mirror is distorted. While the quality of the reflection is not particularly important in a rearview mirror, I found that it was so distracting to see a vibrating, distorted image every time I glanced up that I just couldn't use it.

I did like that it adjusts a little higher up than the OEM mirror. Construction quality is fine for the price. But if you think you will also be distracted by vibrations or a distorted image, I would look elsewhere.

UPDATE 10/28/2011: I ended up buying a replacement mirror from Ford. It uses a different design than my original mirror--it has a metal clip instead of a plastic one, which requires you to slide it down on the mounting base harder than it seems like you should for something mounted to glass. The OEM replacement is completely vibration-free and the glass surface is smooth and distortion-free, and it's even a little larger than my old mirror. It did cost a little more, but it was not unreasonable.

I might recommend this mirror if your OEM mirror is extremely expensive, unavailable, or was itself of poor quality, and you just need to see what's behind you. But if you're happy with the mirror it's replacing, I'd at least price an OEM replacement before resorting to this one.
