Keeping Side Mirrors Clear of Ice

If you have those big rearview mirrors on your car or truck and you know an ice storm is coming, here's a cheap trick to keep them clean. Take two plastic grocery bags (one for each mirror) and two rubber bands and put the bags around the mirrors and secure them with the rubber band. It does not look great but it sure helps in the morning when it comes to cleaning the ice off the car or truck cause those mirrors are free and clear of ice!

Thanks so much for this idea. I'm from Toronto, Ontario. I have this problem all the time, but not now, thanks to you.

What a good idea. It sure beats trying to clean those mirrors early in the morning when you have to get to work.

Smart! I will give that a try next time we get ice or snow. Thank you!
