Customer Review: Finally a mirror that worked
These are great mirrors. I tow a 33 ft trailer with an Expedition. I hadn’t needed mirrors with our old trailer, but knew I would for the new one. I also didn’t think they would make much of a difference, but the law is the law. I tried a different universal mirror that flew off on the freeway. I looked for the Cipa slide over mirrors, but they aren’t made for the Expedition, so I tried these. They really make a difference in being able to see around the trailer and they stayed on tight. I had trouble adjusting them correctly and ended up puting a “shim” under one of the feet. I used a piece of rubber shelf liner. That worked perfectly and I am very happy with the product.

Customer Review: CIPA UTM
This mirror works as advertised, clips on easily and stay in place if you tighten according to the instructions. Since it’s an add-on mirror it does have a bit of vibration but nothing you can’t life with. I also purchased the wideangle lens which are quite helpful.

Planter’s Mr. Peanut Porcelain Refrigerator Magnet
Porcelain enameled signs have been said to be a true reflection of the times. When used for advertising, the signs gave a brilliant permanence to the product. This magnet is an authentic reproduction utilizing the same process popularized in the early 1900’s. The colors are not paints but finely ground glass crystals which, when kiln fired at 1350 degrees Fahrenheit, fuse to the heavy steel plate. Each color is applied and fired separately, creating a durable, lustrous and rust resistant product.
