My problem is I need specs to see distance, so i will keep an 'eye' on what they do in future, glad they worked out well for you.

I have used this type for many years and find them the best. In France I swap the mirror over to the LH side spec arm.
They give a good head-up display of what is behind whilst searching for potholes ahead.

Having it built into the glasses seems so much safer than having a stabby thing ready to break off glasses or a helmet. I know the risk is small, but if you worry about small risks enough to wear that OTT hat, why then chance your face?
