One last observation, my stock OEM mirrors had a metal clip at the bottom of them. (See picture below.) Not sure what it is for exactly, perhaps extra stabilization? But the WOLFBOX mirrors did not have it.

@WOLFBOX do you know what the metal clip on the OEM mirrors is for and how come your replacements don’t include it? Thanks.
I believe these maintain pressure against the housing to prevent vibrations. There are two on the OEM mirrors but only one spot for them on the Wolfbox mirrors. I swapped em over at first, but then when the mirrors wouldnt adjust out as far I removed them thinking maybe they were the culprit, but they weren't. I never did reinstall them on the Wolfbox mirrors after that, as the instructions do not mention anything about them.

Ok. That makes sense. I only had one on each of my OEM mirrors though.

I did wonder about swapping them over as I saw the spot on the Wolfbox mirrors but left them alone for now. Figured I can do it later if need be.

my 2025 mojive only had 1 clip per side as well and i swapped it. that was prob the hardest part.

Your mirror pics are legit. Definite improvement.

Now id just like to remove that FCW sensor that blocks tall people mirror views.

Went out for a drive tonight and wow, yeah I can see so much more on the drivers side especially. Call me impressed.

It’s an adjustment for sure as I lost the magnification from the OEM mirrors and you do notice the curvature a bit as well. But I felt like I could see down the side of my JT and the full lane next to me as well.

Very happy with the purchase.

Your FCW sensor comment cracked me up! 😂 I still have to lean forwards in my seat and bend at times in order to be able to see some of the traffic signals in town change. No idea why they have them mounted up so high!
