External rear-mirror for Monty

**jay52** · October 8th, 2010 05:16 PM

Guys,

Just curious, seems to me no monty's on the road these days that has a external rear-mirror installed? bakit kaya? Out of style na ba for modern SUVs?

hehe thanks!

Just put 2 backing sensor with camera in the middle.

Its a useful thing. External Rear Mirrors are "pre-historic" back-up sensors. If you have the electronic back-up sensors installed ay redundant na to have back-up mirrors. Also useless back-up mirrors if malakas ulan or makapal fog na nag-papalabo sa reflection nito. Pero minsan pag-nabasa ng ulan sensor ay nag-loloko din sya.

For me, I still like the rear mirror better than those high-tech stuff. I don't really trust what I can't see when backing-up so those back-up sensors are not for me. A camera, on the other hand, is good if it is logically positioned. Kapag ang camera ay naka-tapat lang sa likod na makikita mo lang yung nasa likod mo, hindi mo parin matatantsa yung likod mo sa inaatrasan mo kasi hindi mo kita puwetan ng kotse mo. Pero kung maayos pagkalagay sa camera in such a way that you can see your car's rear-end, eh mas okay ito kasi masusukat mo na kung gaano ka kalayo sa inaatrasan mo.

For me, better din ang external rear mirror kasi mas nakikita rear ng car at mas madali magcalculate ng distance than yun backup sensor o camera. Naghahanap ako ng ganito na clip on lang para di magbutas pero wala daw pang montero but I saw one before na may ganito.

Parang ang hirap naman talaga magrely sa back-up sensors eh.

Malay mo, magloko. Blag, sapul ka. :hysterical:

However, back up mirrors are old ... parang wala na sa uso.

Kanya kanya naman yan eh.

hehehe very educational guys.

Problema lang with the video cam was that you have to install a LCD pa inside the car. I know some cars have this pre-install but not the Monty. I guess way too expensive na for the setup.

If any one has this setup installed, maybe you can share some pictures. thanks guys!

Pinaka-effective pa rin talaga ang " katok " method ...

Pababain ang pasahero, papuntahin sa rear. Kakatok siya ng sunod sunod as a signal for " sige lang " and isang malakas na katok for " stop " ....
