I now wear a mirror when riding

I must confess - I purchased the Take a Look mirror and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to attach it to anything!
Help!

This is really hard to explain without photos, and I'm about to head to bed so don't have time to take and upload a photo, but maybe this will help a little:

There are three little padded pieces on the end of the mirror, joined by the wire. The trick is to bend the wire slightly so that the outer two padded pieces go on the outside of the left "arm" of your sunglasses frame, while the middle padded piece goes on the inside of the "arm" of your sunglasses frame. You'll basically bend the wire slightly so it starts to form a "V", then slide it over the arm of your glasses frame. (Sorry if it isn't called an "arm"; I'm not sure what it's called, actually!)

I have two different pairs of sunglasses I wear with the Take-a-look; one has much wider "arms" than the other, so I have to adjust the wire a bit each time I move it from one pair of glasses to another. It's really quite simple once you get the hang of it.

Maybe some kind person will post a photo since this is really hard to explain!

Good Morning -
Thanks Emily, hope you had a good night's sleep!
Your explanation makes sense. Most likely I was trying to be too gentle when working with the arm of the mirror. I'll try again.

Yes, the Take-a-Look is quite sturdy; that wire can take a lot of bending. I constantly have to bend it more or less to change back and forth between my two pairs of sunglasses, and it's held up for years. Good luck!
