Adding a new circuit, a new socket or a new spur is. Leave the access hole where the template shows, because a connection block behind a fitted mirror reached through the wrong hole becomes a tiling job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoosing between this and the alternatives\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA backlit mirror throws its light at the wall behind it and returns a halo. It is beautiful and it does not light your face. If this mirror is the only light source at your basin, choose a front lit one instead, or add a light above. We sell both because plenty of people want the look and are right to, but the specification says which is which and the lux at the face is printed for each. If a backlit mirror is your only light at the basin, add a bar above it or a pair of vertical fittings beside it, and the room will work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bathe and Beam","offers":[{"title":"600 by 800mm","offer_id":58023162741118,"sku":"BBM-MIR-008-M68","price":299.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 by 700mm","offer_id":58023162773886,"sku":"BBM-MIR-008-M57","price":249.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"800 by 800mm","offer_id":58023162806654,"sku":"BBM-MIR-008-M88","price":369.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 by 800mm","offer_id":58023162839422,"sku":"BBM-MIR-008-M108","price":439.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/1527\/9230\/files\/Round_Backlit_Illuminated_Mirror_in_Matt_Black.jpg?v=1789239865"}],"url":"https:\/\/batheandbeam.com\/collections\/mirrors-backlit.oembed","provider":"Bathe \u0026 Beam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
