Hi
I have a Jeep and had wanted a decent set of mirrors for our summer holidays. I just had a set of the rubber band type Raydots.
I bought a set of Suck it and See mirrors and a set of the Best Buy Milenco with the intention of "testing" and selling the surplus pair on Ebay.
My conclusion is they are both no better than the £10 pair of Raydots I originally had.
Save your money!!
HTH

After losing two lots of stick on mirrors I bought a pair with the elastic backs for my old Rover 75 made for the car. Kept them when I sold the car and now use them on my Sorento. Best I have ever had and they only cost me £15 for the pair. Had them 4 years now. Forget the stick on ones. Our last two lots are in a hedge somewhere !!!------------- John

I have used the rubber band cheap ones from Raydot, I cant see bugger all behind me because of the vibration, useless, I have now got the suck it and see ones, but I am not too keen as the mirror sits quite deep inside the cowling so they don't fit quite as they should to get the view I want. I am going to buy some of these next, the adjustment looks good and they feel solid.

My rubber band type mirrors are incredibly stable. Even at highly illegal motorway speeds (running solo - I couldn't be bothered taking them off...)
