    Hi ppl,

    I am wondering if I install an aftermarket blind spot monitor system, will this void my warranty?

    Thank you

    Do you mean a backup camera? That will not void your warranty.

    cproaudio,

    Thank you for answering! Not sure if you are in Southern California. Just wondering if you know any good store to install the Blink Spot System in the Southern California?

    A custom stereo shop should be able to install it. I don't think it's that hard. It's about the same as installing back up sensors.

    Do those convex small stick on mirrors work?

    Oh I see. "Blind spot detector" was a term unfamiliar to me. I have always called those devices proximity detectors. I agree with cproaudio. Unlikely to void a warranty.

    They work great if you always remember to use them. The detectors work even if you forget to look.

    I purchased a European-spec driver rearview mirror glass, which has the convex outside 1/3.
