    So does anyone have any recommendations and/or pics of their blind spot mirror attachment? I’ve been looking on Amazon and there are so many sizes and shapes! Not including reviews.


    So I figured I’d ask you guys the TW community

    You want just the little convex blond spot mirrors or the electronic lights?
    If just the convex mirrors the best thing is replacing your mirror glass with the 2016-2018 Rav4 mirror glass, they have convex mirrors built in.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2016-rav4-convex-mirrors.468473/



    If your talking about the electronic BSM system, it would be a whole lot more effort and money than its worth

    None as of yet
    Adjust your mirrors. Put your head against the driver window and adjust the mirror to where you can just see the side of your truck. And then put your head on centerline and adjust the passenger to do the same. Blindspots nearly eliminated

    Why solve the problem with a simple convex mirror when you can throw much more complex technology at it...?

    I added the RAV4 blind spot mirrors to my 4Runner, pretty sure the gen 3 taco is the same mirror as well.

    Ive tried those little round mirros that you stick to the side mirrors and they keep falling off because of the heat in southern California.

    Bottom outside of mirror for me.

    I get I could “adjust” my mirrors but I literally can’t drive without them now...
    like when I drive another vehicle without them

    Makes me comfy and confident

    Bought my Tacoma 13 hr drive away and stopped to buy them before leaving

    Maybe overkill but does rav4 mirror also have BSM connection that exists on my current setup? Always like my eyes being judge with BSM sensors?

    On my old gen1, I epoxyed the convex mirror since over time heat would breakdown double sided tape ... worked forever.
