      I also have a mirror that is about twice the size of the monitor (60x40cm mirror, 19" 5:4 monitor) and in normal daylight it’s totally not visible. At night, however, when there is no other light in the room you can clearly see where the monitor ends

        @dbahn25 I’d recommend putting black tape or something similar on the inside of the mirror where the monitor doesn’t show to combat this.

          @Atheose thats exactly what i did. the problem is that the part where the monitor is is actually too bright, so it’d probably be better to put some white or light gray paper behind the parts that are not covered by monitor. But it’s not too bad and I don’t want to get the mirror off the wall and disassemble the whole thing again…
