Hey everyone! I recently joined the Infiniti family with a QX60, and while I’m absolutely loving the smooth ride and the interior space, I’m having a bit of a struggle with the side visibility. Even with the seat adjusted perfectly, I’ve noticed that the D-pillars are quite thick, and when I have the third-row headrests up, my rear-view line of sight is pretty restricted.
I do have the built-in Blind Spot Warning system, which is great, but I’m one of those drivers who doesn't like to rely 100% on sensors and beeps. There have been a couple of instances on the highway where a smaller car was tucked right in that awkward zone, and the sensor didn't pick them up as quickly as I would have liked. I’m looking to add a pair of high-quality blind spot mirrors to give me that extra peace of mind during lane changes, especially when I’m hauling the kids and the car is packed.
My main concern is finding something that doesn't look like a cheap, bulky plastic addition to a luxury SUV. I really want to maintain the sleek aesthetic of the Infiniti mirrors. I’ve seen some of those frameless, slim convex mirrors online, but I’m worried about the adhesive holding up in car washes or during the hot summer months. Also, because the QX60 mirrors have a specific curved shape, I’m not sure if I should go with the standard circular ones or the more rectangular/fan-shaped ones that might fit the outer corner better.
Has anyone here found a specific brand or model that fits the QX60 side mirrors perfectly without blocking the heated mirror function or the integrated turn signals? I’d prefer something that looks as close to OEM as possible. Are there any specific spots on the glass where you’ve found they work best—top outer corner or bottom outer corner? I’d love to hear what you guys are using and if you have any photos of how they look installed!
Seconding the recommendation above! Honestly, those rectangular ones really do look way more OEM than the cheap circles.
I’ve been using the Amfor Blind Spot Mirror 2 Pack Frameless Rectangular Convex on my QX60 for about a year now.
* **Price:** Usually under $10 on Amazon.
* **Adhesive:** Survived 100°F summers and high-pressure car washes no problem.
* **Placement:** I put mine in the bottom outer corner.
It’s a lifesaver for those thick D-pillars!
Welcome to the family! I've had my QX60 for three years and totally get the D-pillar struggle. Honestly, those circular ones look cheap on an Infiniti. I've been extremely satisfied with the Uthever Frameless Convex Rear View Blind Spot Mirrors. They're rectangular, so they fit the outer top corner perfectly without blocking the heated mirror icons. The adhesive is solid; mine have survived several 100-degree summers and weekly car washes with no issues. Definitely a sleek, OEM-style upgrade!
Curious about one thing: are you primarily looking for a permanent stick-on solution, or would you consider a clip-on style that attaches to the mirror housing? I totally get wanting to keep that sleek Infiniti look—it's such a gorgeous SUV!
Since you're budget-conscious but want reliability, here are two solid options to weigh against the ones already mentioned:
1. **Fit System C0400 Adjustable Blind Spot Mirror**: This one is super affordable and has a great swivel feature.
- **Pros:** Very cheap; adjustable angle.
- **Cons:** A bit bulkier; might not look as "OEM" as frameless ones.
2. **Liberrway Blind Spot Mirror Frameless 360 Degree Rotate**:
- **Pros:** Incredible value for a 2-pack; the 360-degree rotation is amazing for finding that sweet spot near the D-pillar.
- **Cons:** The adhesive is strong, but you *must* prep the glass with alcohol first!
Honestly, I'd go with the Liberrway for the cleanest look! Let me know about the clip-on vs. stick-on preference though... it makes a big difference for the heated mirror function!
