Does the shiny surface attach to the back of the glass (like a reg. glass mirror) or the front (&amp; reflect the light before it hits the glass at all)?

You never put a film on the outside to be exposed to the elements. The silver side goes to the back of glass

It may reflect a glare from the glass or light entering window. Easiest way to do is mount it and check on it throughout day. One thing, it goes through the batteries and delay misses some action.

The bar is perpendicular to the mirror, but you can slide the clamp on in either direction. The shape of the mirror will mean you get a slightly different view depending on orientation, but with this mirror I haven't found it to be that different. I agree with J Petty that you need to avoid scratching it--it's not made of gorilla glass :-)

if I recall correctly the rest of the mirror serves as a rearview mirror. Unfortunately, the mirror did not consistently work, and I had to use a different one, which is too bad, because on occasion when it worked it was crystal clear.

Thanks for the great question! Yes, the one-way mirror film will stick on plexiglass, but I can't vouch for other non-glass surfaces.

Neither. This mirror doesn't have a light. I've had mine for about two months---and it's terrific. Installation was easy, and it's a great product.

It is not meant to be a mirror. the reflection most people are talking about is the reflection like you would get from using your cell phone as a mirror, or a piece of glass. If you want to use it as a mirror, apply that reflective window tint that has the one way mirror effect.

I have attached the Light to the top of the Dome light not the plastic defused or clear bottom glass. It has not caused any problems.

The Frieling is not super shiny, but does reflect light. Ours has not scratched at all, so far, and we haven't been particularly careful with it. It cleans very easily.

This light creates a wide bright beam. I use one as a back up light and it is more than enough light. I don't know about going through glass and what to anticipate for glare or reflection.

I would say semi matte it is flat but does reflect front light sources.It is more of a dull reflection than a glossy glass like look.Hope that helps.The off angle viewing is a bit of an issue as well.

The mirror has a standard reflection. No - the glass does not have a dark tint.

I have not tried it. I would say no, I don't think light go through the glass sink. But due to its made of glass, so it appears shiny.

The light has three settings. I use the highest one most of the time. I do not add any other light when using. I wear glasses and can use this mirror without them. Even though the light seems frosted, I find it to be enough. It would depend on your preference of lighting , I suppose.

I once thought the material was like contact cement, but on a roll. SO, sure, it will adhere to a mirror, but what do you do to remove it later? Could break the glass! Maybe a small mirror could be pried off. I would rather use mechanical means to mount it.

It is neither glass nor metal. There is a plastic coating over the mirror. My guess is a thin reflecive material under the plastic that is lightweight. There is no distortion in the mirror either.

Yes it is usually attached onto your mirror so any dimming will be nullified
