OMG, Just a bit excited. Went and ordered my clearview mirrors for my Colorado today. Was asked if I wanted the heated mirrors or the Auto Fold Mirrors. Naturally there is a big price difference. Now , when I went into the Auto Barn about 8 weeks ago I was told they I was told they weren't in production. So I was rapt that that I could now get them

Well done KathnDave, you won't regret it for one minute. In fact, not even a second. To think you can get them heated and auto fold in now is great and more than likely worth it too. We were only just talking about those the other day.
I love my Clearviews and would never leave home without them. Oooops, I can't can I

Ditto, all the above.
Had mine for 4 years now on my cruiser, easy to take off when home, but on the road they are sensational.
Mine dont have the heating, and or the foldaway, but I still have the power to DIY.
Regards.
Hetho.

I watch as some attempt to reverse their van against a concrete slab and even after much arm waving and shouting the result is quite often not what was desired or ideal. It is also entertaining to some others.
I find that with a sensible approach position and then with the mere touch of the mirror switch you can angle the LHS mirror to reflect the van wheels position in relation to the concrete. This all happens from the comfort of the drivers seat.
It then becomes a simple procedure to reverse the van to its desired position because you can see the wheels.
No more semaphore signals from Mum and no more raised voices.
All this is over and above what you may see in them while driving forward.
I find that the Clearview is ideal for just checking that the roll up awning is travelling ok by once again adjusting the LHS mirror up a bit to reflect the view of the awning roll. I do this once I have gotten up to highway travelling speed as I did once have a roll that was a bit loose and was flapping. This probably saved me the cost of the mirrors if I had to replace a damaged vinyl roll.
Well worth the investment in safety and convenience.

I overheard two guys in an Albury CP the other day. One was talking about his Prince Charles Mirrors. The other guy had no idea what he was on about. First guy said that's what SWMBO called them Reminded her of Prince Charles's Sticking out Ears.

Had to supress a chuckle.
