Does this have to be removed to utilize the rearview mirror for regular driving needs each time I back out?

No, this with work as a rear view mirror too. Slightly dimmer tint than the regular rear view mirror though.

No, you do not have to remove it. It has a reflective coating that allows you to see when it is turned off.

The mirror simply clips onto your original rear view mirror. Very simple. The whole system is very nice. I like mine a lot and I am very satisfied with it.

Yes. But you need to install the supports all on the side without the mirror.

I recommend using the relocated mirrors when the doors are off and using the original mirrors when the doors are on. In other words, I didn't bother relocating the mirrors but kept an extra set for "door-off" driving.

It doesn't necessarily stick to the glass. Once you place it on the dashboard it has a small space that attaches to the rear view mirror. Once its in place you can adjust it to your liking. You can also use the straps for more support. I was skeptical about getting it but I'm happy I did.

It has rubber spring-loaded clips that will attach over your existing mirror. Any size or style rearview mirror it will attach to. I have a heavy duty work truck and have had quite a few hard bounces within jobsites and has never fallen off.

Hi. Yes, the rod comes out fairly easily and you can leave the mount in place. I have to tell you, though, that I plan to replace it this spring. The mirror surface is polished aluminum. It's durable, but images aren't very clear, which I found to be a huge detriment in traffic.

The best spot for it is on the winshield right under the rearview mirror. It attaches with adhesive tape.

In my SUV yes. This is why I don't use it permanently.If one keeps the visors between the windshield an the mirror it limits the mirror's adjustment for optimal viewIt also depends on the size and mounting of the visors. Many users are very happy wit it

My tag is always hanging on my rear-view mirror, I never take it down. My compass is not in my mirror, but the wires and mechanism for the compass is there and I have not had any problems at all. I had the same concern, I hope this helps. I have a Jeep.

You will be able to use it on the driver side; but adjustment will be needed in case a person need to use the mirror. I am happy with the Stealth!Clarence

I have hooked up them mirror, and it works great. It is easier to look at the rear view mirror when your backing up and then it goes off and you have the regular mirror.

Sorry about last answer. I was thinking about another mirror I had purchased. For this one, I just use batteries and remove them when not traveling.

I have used this type of mirror for over twenty years, and currently have four of them in use (homes in different parts of the country). You could pull the mirror off of the helmet mount by pulling the ball out of the socket. You run the risk of breaking that socket/ball or greatly reducing the tension of the socket/ball coupling which would possibly resulting in the mirror flopping/moving during use. I HAVE NOT tried to remove and reattach any of the mirrors I have owned.

The item you are looking at buying is best answered by Pete, the monitor is part of your mirror. The second part is also a yes, it does attach to the existing rearview mirror (replacing it) by using two clips for support with two velcro straps as well. The monitor is behind the mirror, so when the monitor is turned off, you have a regular mirror.

No, not EASILY. You have to move either your head or the mirror so that the bright scene through the rear window is not reflecting in the mirror. It's only a small inconvenience, though.
