Magnetic mirrors

[Peter Aawen]

...... - but my model is ST - not RT.
Does ist work with the magnetics from lamonster..??

Sorry Germanspyderrider, the Magic Mirror Magnets only work with the RT's & their 'integrated into the body panels' mirrors, each of them being held on by 3 metal pins slotted into plastic slots on the mirrors!

IIRC, your model Spyder has mirrors that are bolted on; but I think Lamonster Garage & maybe others might sell re-location or extension arms for yours... best to check with them tho.

I can confirm the original clip wires do get bend very quickly. I had one 3000 mile service and one fix of the panels not being put back together properly and three out of four wires are already bent.

We installed the magic mirrors right after the X-mas and I can say we both had to find a YouTube video by someone else to find out, how to install them, because there were no instructions included. We just started our own installs and fixes after last bad experiences with repair shops and we had a hard time understanding what the online document states.

It seems as the instructions on new gadgets are starting to be fade out lately.
I got a GoPro 5 black as well with no manual at all, just a little Quick start guide that was missing crucial steps. As a first time GoPro owner, it was a challenge to figure out, how to remove the cam from the box mount. We had to find videos on youtube again, just to figure out, how to operate it.We had to find videos on YouTube again, just to figure out, how to operate it. Even GoPro’s web site states to figure out steps based on personal experience.

It would be really nice to receive instructions with pictures and description on how to install these expensive gadgets. Magic Mirrors are great but not cheap, they deserve some installation paperwork, which is very easily produced these digital days.

The install video and the PDF file are on the page that you order the product from. On any of our products that's the way we do it.

Russell Cullen the inventor of the Magic Mirror posted this tutorial on the installation of them
When I purchased mine from him before Lamonster took over the company
I used this You tube video by playing each stage then putting it on hold, doing that stage on my RT before moving on to the next stage until the installation was complete

… The upper OEM BRP connection was never an issue, and ... It actually holds the mirror better than three magnets …. if " DGoebel " had it set up the way you do His would'nt have come off..... imho the tethers are such a simple thing, that guarantee's the mirror won't hit the ground.... Yes His didn't either and I'm very surprised that they didn't. The lamp wiring in the mirror is the smallest used because the lamp is not a lamp it's an LED which doesn't need thick wires..... I always use mine...…. Mike

Blueknight911? Ive seen your name a few times around here on a few topics. Are you sure you know what you're talking about and you're logic is correct??

[ARtraveler]

It is okay to disagree. Just asking that it be kept civil. That is what these favorite discussions are all about.

I purchased a set last year. Great idea. In my opinion I would think this would be like this from the factory.!!

First allow me to Thank You for your service in the Air Force & the Patriot Guard …. However from the " laughing " emoji am I to gather that you think my " logic" is not correct " ??? … I spent dozens of hours researching the " use of magnets " to hold the RT mirrors on …. and if you want that info I will gladly send it to you in an E-mail …… PM me your address if you want it …… Mike

Yep, BK911 is among the all time DIY'ers on this site. If you like DIY you can put together and stall magic mirrors for under ten bucks, well......maybe twenty bucks including drinks.
