When I first saw that pair of rectangular, silver, and thick rearview mirrors, the “silver ears” of the Audi RS series flashed through my mind instantly. They are a symbol of high performance and unique design. Now that this stylish element can actually appear on my electric two-wheeled scooter, I just had to get them.

The installation process was like a “mini battle”. I thought that with my “rich experience” of changing light bulbs a few times, installing a rearview mirror would be a piece of cake. But when I faced the complex structure of the handlebars of the scooter, I realized I was being too naive. The wrench didn’t obey me at all in my hand, and the screws seemed to be deliberately against me, and I just couldn’t tighten them. After finally fixing the rearview mirrors in place, I found that no matter how I adjusted the angle, it was wrong. I could either only see the sky or only see the ground. In the end, I had to ask the old man who repaired vehicles at the entrance of the community for help. The old man fixed it with ease and said with a smile, “Young man, this thing looks simple, but there’s still some knack to installing it.” I scratched my head awkwardly beside him and secretly admired the old man’s craftsmanship in my heart.

Since installing this pair of rearview mirrors, my riding life has been completely “transformed”. Once, when I was waiting at a traffic light, a big brother riding an electric scooter leaned over and asked with envy on his face, “Brother, where did you buy these rearview mirrors? They look so cool, just like those on a small racing car.” I proudly shared the purchase link with him. At that moment, I felt like a trendsetter. Another time, I rode my scooter to the park. A group of children were playing nearby. One of the children pointed at my scooter and shouted, “Look! The eyes of this electric scooter are so special. It’s like a big glowing box!” The other children also gathered around and chattered about it. My scooter instantly became a “star exhibit” in the park.

This pair of rearview mirrors is not just a good-looking “vase”. Its rectangular design provides an unprecedentedly wide field of vision. In the past, when turning, I was always very cautious, for fear that a vehicle would suddenly appear from behind. Now, I just need to take a quick glance at the rearview mirror, and I can have a clear view of the situation behind. Once, when I was preparing to change lanes, I clearly saw from the rearview mirror that an electric scooter was speeding towards me from behind, and the rider was still looking down at his phone. If it weren’t for the timely warning of this rearview mirror, when I changed lanes, I would definitely have collided with him head-on. I quickly stabilized the scooter and continued moving forward with a lingering fear after he passed, feeling even more grateful to this pair of rearview mirrors.

Moreover, its thickness is not for show. Once, I accidentally hit a roadside stone pier when parking. I thought the rearview mirrors would definitely be “sacrificed”, but as a result, there was only a slight scratch on the surface, and the lenses and brackets were intact. Compared with the previous pair of thin rearview mirrors, they were simply “pathetic”. This sturdy quality gives me an extra sense of peace of mind every time I ride.

However, these rearview mirrors can also give me headaches at times. Because they are relatively thick, when parking in some narrow places, I’m always worried about hitting the vehicles next to me. Once, in the underground parking lot of a shopping mall, parking spaces were already in short supply. I finally found an empty space, but when parking, the rearview mirror accidentally rubbed against the car next to it. My heart skipped a beat at that moment, and I quickly checked. Fortunately, there was only a slight mark on that car, and no substantial damage was caused. Since then, every time I park in a narrow space, I have to be extremely careful.

Overall, I really made the right choice by buying this pair of rectangular, silver, and thick rearview mirrors. They make my electric scooter unique, with an extremely high rate of people turning their heads to look. They also provide solid protection for my riding safety. Although there have been some small incidents during the use process, it doesn’t affect my love for them at all. Folks, if you also want to add some “personalized touches” to your electric scooters, you might as well try this special kind of rearview mirror. Maybe you’ll also reap a bunch of unexpected fun and convenience!
