Unless you can find something that will fit real close to the body, I would leave them off.

Leave them off it looks much cleaner and I haven't had a problem with driving without them, and this truck is my daily driver....:D :D :D


Check my sig and you can see what it looks like..

big red
how hard is it to drive without them ive never had a truck before and was wondering my old car was small and only had the mirror on the driver side but i never used em

[bigred305]

Sorry it took me so long to reply, I don't have any problems driving without them. The back window is large enough that I can turn my head around a little and see if anything is in the next lane. Really I don't know how to describe it, but I don't have any problems driving every day. I usually drive it about 70 + miles a day and have had no close encounters, and driving at night is no problem either. Some of my friends have said it takes them time to get used to it, but its not bad.

[chev1978]

[bigred305]

I have some big ones, but I highly doubt that is what you are looking for.

I want to shave mine i think but its a little harder with a blazer. I want to end up with double 5% on everything but the windshield and 15% or 5% on it. So the ability to see would really be a factor.
