Possible Side Mirror Replacement to reduce Blind Spot - Please respond if interested

[BillLumberg]

I have been in touch with Eddy from Suma Performance (thanks to @Norb-TX for bringing them up in the other thread). They make aftermarket convex side mirror replacements to reduce blind spots. This would replace the mirror only, you keep the factory housing. They also offer a version with blue tint that reduces glare. Eddy stated if there is enough interest, they would make them for the Grenadier. He has not yet defined "enough interest". Judging by the cost of the Jeep JL, it appears it would be around $200 for the pair.

I tried to make a poll, but I guess it has not been turned on for me yet. So if you will respond to this thread, I will let Eddy know how many people are interested and see if that is enough for them to make the mirrors.

Thanks.

ahh, you are doing blue on eldorat blue. Please let us know how it looks as I have held off undecided on whether blue will look alright with eldorat blue.

Heya DoubleDoom. Got the mirrors today. Installed. I really like them. I think the look fine and good. Install was super easy / straight forward. 10 minutes max end to end.

Will post another photo in daylight tomorrow. I really like the improved viewing angle.

After a couple days of driving I am more than pleased. These mirrors should be standard from the factory. Really improve visibility, especially if you hang stuff off the side of the truck. In my case the panty would fill the (stock) mirror. Now I can see around it. Much safer.

In an attempt to improve my Grenadier's poor rear visibility I recently purchased the grey mirrors from Suma Performance.
I purchased them from Suma's online US website and they arrived in Adelaide, Australia, 10 days later. They were well packed with bubble wrap and double boxed.
Very happy with the purchasing and delivery process.
I used the Owl Vans video instructions to remove the originals and install the new mirrors.
I didn't opt for electric mirrors on my build and the removal and installation after watching the video was ridiculously easy.
15 seconds Click, Click ...to remove each and then 10 seconds Click, Click ...to install the new ones.
The grey is a light tint and a pleasing match to the black trim and Scottish white of my vehicle.

HOWEVER...when I removed the mirrors I noticed that unlike the USA build mirrors on this forum, my original Ineos mirrors are already curved.
My Grenadier is a September 2024 build Station Wagon delivered in Australia Jan 2025.

The Suma mirrors appear to be slightly more curved to the naked eye than the originals but there appears to be very little (if any) increase in angle of view compared to the original ones.
I haven't made any objective measurements and because I paid money for them, I'm telling myself that there is an improvement!
