Can get your friend stand at your blind spot.

Then try which spot is more comfy for you to see your fren from the blind-spot mirror before pasting it.

nrmlly ppl will stick it on the outer top of the mirrow, eg left will be upper top left corner.. right will be upper top right corner.. but also depends on individual.. which is easier for you to see and which u're more comfortable with..

Thks guys for the input.

I have place my bind spot mirror on D, thicker side facing inwards.

 

Attached is a picture that I created to describe roughly the purpose of putting the blind mirror.

 

Yellow Rectangle is your bike.

The 2 lines show the area covered by your side mirror.

The 2 blue circles shows the blind spot which not covered and yet crucial to you if you are to change lane. Thus by putting the blind spot mirror correctly, you will be able to see these 2 areas.

Note, the blind spot mirror is just to let you have more awareness about your surrounding. It is still advisable to turn your head and check before changing lane as distance shown in the blind spot mirror is very hard to judge.

 

Do correct mi if I’m wrong.

Hope it helps others in the future.
