Broadway Mirrors are a great way to eliminate blind spots and increase vehicle safety while on the road. They are available in various styles, finishes, lengths, and coatings, but all serve the similar purpose of helping the driver see out of the vehicle. Lengths: Most OEM (Stock) mirrors have a length of about 220mm(=8.66inch). Broadway Mirrors come in various Lengths: 240mm (=9.45inch), 270mm(=10.63inch), 300mm(11.81inch), and 360mm(14.17inch). Length depends on personal preference and vehicle application, and much like clothes. Flat and Convex: Broadway Mirrors are all available in either Flat or Convex styles. This refers to the curvature of the reflective element, whether it is flat, or slightly curved. The Flat mirrors offer a linear portrayal of whatever is reflected, and does not distort the image around the edges. The Convex mirrors are curved, and offer a greater viewing area when compared to the Flat mirrors. The curve of the mirror creates the effect of images looking further away than they actually are. Coatings- Aluminum, Chrome, and Blue: Broadway Mirrors are available with three coatings, Aluminum, Chrome, and Blue. Each has unique properties, advantages, and disadvantages. Chrome Coating (Red Packaging) mirrors have more tint on them when compared to most OEM mirrors, and other Broadway offerings. The increased tint on the mirror allows the reflective element to cut down on glare from the sun and headlights shining in the mirror. This is helpful for vehicles which are lowered and frequently experience glare from headlights in the rear view mirror.
