Does anyone use Broadway Mirrors?
Yes, I know this might sound "ricer" on a Lexus..
but does anyone use Broadway Mirrors? I am sick of that huge blind spot on the C pillars and it has been bothering me for a few years already. Since I don't even use my compass to begin with I think this might be a good trade off.
Anyone know if they actually fit onto the IS mirrors since it is fat and wider than other cars?

I have one on my Integra and I do like the visibility it provides, but I have to say I wouldn't want one in my IS. I don't use the compass, but I DO like that it reduces glare from headlights at night don't want to cover that up.

The OEM glare-reducing rear view mirror is so helpful especially if you're lowered. I don't even care about suvs/trucks shining their bright lights at me anymore.
^Lol seconds before me with the same idea.

mine didnt fit either. It is a 240mm broadway optics mirror with glass made by hoya. It was not cheap. Also, it covers the compass, homelink buttons and auto darkener buttons.

Hmm... I was about to install one in mine, but it blocks my garage door button. I ended up donating mine to wife's RSX.
If you don't need the garage door buttons, go for it. Also make sure you take a measurement between the visors. You want to fold down the visor without hitting the broadway (wide) mirror.
My previous car:
I got one that was too large... I could't fold my visor all the way down cuz it was blocked. I ended up tossing it becuz I was tired of being blinded by the sun.
