Blind Spot mirrors

this is what I use..... wide angle mirrors

 

lol, you've got the Euro side angle mirrors which are standard here. I guess they're not legal for you as they don't remind you about objects being closer but they actually work well.

 

I tried several versions till I found this one at AutoZone for around $5 and it swivels/turns so you can maximize the viewing angle. Still it would be nice to have a blind-spot warning system as others have mentioned.

 

nice find...

 

DC919, two things regarding the first image...

WTH (heck), this pic was snapped while the vehicle was in motion. Put down the camera/phone and concentrate on driving.

The placement of the blindspot mirror on the inside of the side mirror shows a field of view that's narrower than the side mirror itself. Unless your goal was to admire the side of your car while you drive?

 

I know, probably not the safest thing to do taking a pic while driving. As far as the actual field of view little or none of the vehicle is visible from where my head is. The camera gave a false field of view as it was placed low and next to the window. One of the first convex round mirrors I tried was placed on the far outside but was rather distracting I found. I think the ideal solution would be to do what the previous poster "bino" did and get a right hand drive (Japan/UK) mirror glass since it would be the same as my current passenger mirror with the whole field of view being a wide angle.
