Sheboygan, WI -- Muth Mirror Systems, LLC of Sheboygan, WI and Street Scene Equipment of Costa Mesa, CA are working together to introduce the Signal Mirror® Safety System technology in the popular Cal-Vu line of sport mirrors.

Signal® mirrors use high intensity lights to change ordinary exterior rearview mirrors into safety features that command attention.  When a turn signal is activated, a flashing chevron appears in the corresponding side mirror to alert drivers in the "blind spots" around and behind the vehicle.  The mirrors appear as regular rearview mirrors whether the turn signals are activated or not.

The LED display used in Signal® mirrors lights up faster than regular incandescent lamps in tail lights.  This accounts for a difference of 17 feet at 65 m.p.h.  By alerting drivers in the "blind spots" of the vehicle equipped with Signal® mirrors, those drivers have additional reaction time to avoid a collision.

Unlike the adjacent drivers who see a highly visible lighted display, the driver of the vehicle equipped with Signal® mirrors sees a subtle tell-tale display.  This reminds the driver the Signal® mirror is activated.

Each Cal-Vu Signal Mirror® kit comes complete with one left and one right mirror housing, a wiring kit, and installation instructions.  This new accessory will be available in early 2001 for trucks and SUV's.

"Signal® mirrors have become popular not only as a safety accessory but also as a cool new lighting option," says Kristi Lawrence, Marketing Manager of Muth Mirror Systems.  "Street Scene approached us about a collaborative effort since their 
customers were inquiring about Signal® mirrors.  We welcome this type of joint effort to meet market demands."
