Cheers.
read up on the app radio before you buy it. It's not getting very good reviews. It's supposedly VERY laggy and doesn't work as well w the phones as its supposed to. I JUST ordered the pioneer 4400bh. I'll let ya know how it works out. Lots of the same features (minus gps, but I know how to get everywhere I go).

Got my tabs and license plate from the dealership today! Also changed the license frame so I'm not advertising dealerships.

I'm thinking of ordering something like this:
Amazon.com: Honda License Plate Frame Bolts Screws: Automotive

It's abit over the top, but there's something about it that makes me want it.

I have the 300mm mirror and really like it a lot. I did find that it obstructed some of my view, especially when coming downhill to a "T" intersection. The mirror covered up a bit more than stock, so I couldn't see the actual sign part of the stop sign at the end of my street (just the post).

I found that if I rotate the stock mirror 180 degrees, and then clip on the broadyway mirror, the bottom edge is about 1 cm higher. It really made all the difference. Enjoy!

Yeah, looks like a 300mm would fit fine as well. Didn't want to risk it, but there is still room on either side for the sun visors. I can see what you mean about it hanging down a bit low, and making for some blind spots when going downhill. I will try the flip method. Good tip, thanks!

I like the mirror a lot now that I'm used to it. What I think it is mainly good for is being able to see and talk to your passengers, as well as be able to check out traffic in the lane that is two lanes over before merging. That way, I can tell if someone is trying to accelerate into the same spot on the lane. It vibrates a bit due to the extra weight, which is my only real complaint.

I think it's pretty funny though--the Fit doesn't really have a blind spot. I can see what I need to in the stock mirrors. It should help keep some sun out too. Mine is the standard slightly tinted model, which I will say, is not the greatest at night with tinted windows. If I were to get it again, I'd try the high reflection one. It should be about like the stock mirror.
