update: I had the clear bra reapplied to the drivers side mirror and within 10 miles the damn mirror was whistling again . I just pulled over at the first gas station I found and just ripped it off. I give up !! LOL

Did the installer now know about whistling effects?
That's just messed up.

side mirror whistling
I just had the same problem with my 2016 IS f sport. right when i got on the freeway leaving where i got the clear bra installed on both mirrors it started whistling. i thought it was the windows at first. this is a great heads up. I will let him know and try to either shrink the film size or take the whole thing off.

I drove my new LS 460 off the lot yesterday and heard the high pitched wind sound coming from the driver side as soon I hit beltway speeds.
The dealer had ClearBra removed from the mirrors this morning.
Drove home to the sound of silence.
Thanks for this post. I was afraid I was going to have the same problem as the pre-2010 owners were experiencing.
