Your automotive mirrors are quite different from the mirrors you have in your bathroom. You will typically find three Ford Focus mirrors installed on your vehicle. Most vehicles will have a rear view mirror and two side view mirrors.
Some drivers choose to install additional or replacement Focus mirrors, such as towing mirrors or wide-angle mirrors. Whether you have stock mirrors or custom mirrors, your Ford Focus mirrors are essential to your driving safety.
Automotive mirrors allow you to see behind your vehicle without taking your eyes from the road, which is critical when you are backing out of a driveway or parking space, or changing lanes on the highway. Most drivers rely heavily on their rear view Focus mirrors, since they are the easiest to use. You will find your rear view mirror mounted on the inside of your windshield near the top center. The rear view mirror is affixed to a swivel joint, making it easy to adjust. Many rear view Ford Focus mirrors incorporate additional features, such as a dimming feature for night time driving that is either accessed through a manual switch, or begins working automatically when light hits the surface of the mirror. Some rear view mirrors feature map lights on the bottom edge, or digital compasses or outside temperature readouts built in to the surface of the mirror. Your two side view Focus mirrors are a bit different. The left mirror is a normal reflecting mirror that shows objects at actual size and distance, while the right mirror is a convex surface that makes objects smaller, in order to show a wider surface area and help to overcome the right side blind spot.Be sure to replace any missing or broken mirrors right away--you will find the Focus mirrors you need right here in our online catalogue for less.
