Rear View Mirror Too Big!

[gill57]

Hi, :P

I'm new to this site, I've been watching it for while and thought it was time to register, so here I am.

Anyway, back to my point in question. Does anyone feel that the rear view mirror is too big, I find that I have to look around it sometimes to see clearly when turning? Maybe it's just me but I would be interested if anyone else has an opinion on this.

Maybe I could buy a smaller/neater rear view mirror, any ideas would be appreciated. Please be gentle with me, remeber I'm a newbie

with regards

Welcome to the club, cant say I've ever had any problems with the rear view mirror personally but I cant imagine it being too difficult to change it if you want to.

Every now and then I find it a tiny bit too large but on another side the bigger it is the more it will show you

i think its in the wrong place for us taller people. it should be at the top of the windscreen but its not

when i go round left hand corners i have to look round the rear view mirror to make sure im not driving into anything

my seat is at its lowest but still it blocks my view, pain in the ***** cos i have to focus more on one area hence get less of an overall view

Hiya,

Thanks for all the interest. I found this site earlier today. I think it's the perfect solution for the forward blind spot.

Hope i've done this right. what do you think? Would be great if it would fit my little yaris.

I was going to say the same thing, the mirror's not a problem & I'm 6 ft but the pillars get right in my way sometimes

I have similar problems - first there's the height issue /\ but my major issue is the manigfication i find that bits of the rear window gets cut off and i have to 'look around' to see out back.
