driving yesterday i commented i see more out the vents on wither side of the the hatch glass than than the glass itself!! :)
Worked for me. If you can see the side of your car in the side mirror then you have adjusted it incorrectly. On the right side, it is adjusted so that i can see the car in the mirror and as it goes by me, say in heavy traffic and as it disappears from the mirror, the nose of the car is now visible through the passenger side of the window. I can't adjust the mirror on the drivers side to duplicate this effect. So as the car appears in the mirror and disappears as it goes by, there is a considerable distance until it appears in my peripheral vision as i glance left. Probably has to do with the convexity of the passenger mirror as opposed to the driver's side.Quote:

A few of these did the job for me:
Amazon.com: Custom Accessories 71173 Chrome 2" Round Adjustable Blind Spot, (Pack of 2): Automotive
Looks better with the Lambo design than the circular ones, and the quality is amazing. Blind spot totally eliminated. I also tinted my main mirrors due to the huge amounts of glare driving at night, so basically I only end up using these little panoramic ones. Works great.
Before this I hated driving the car in traffic in LA. You get very little time to change lanes here and with the massive blind spots I kept bottling out of lane changes. Not any more :D
Electrochromic mirrors with the convex edge (hi Ferrari) would have fixed both of these problems, but the fix was easy enough.
Thats an easy fix for sure, nicely done ;)Quote:

Not sure if this works on the Coupe, but on the Spyder, rear view mirror. I adjust it so while looking up into the mirror only the upper half of the mirror sees oncoming traffic, the bottom half of the mirror sees the inside back panel of the car. This allows a straight shot of the rear view with the mirror, otherwise it seems the shot I get is pointed too high and I cannot see cars as they approach. Sure hope all this makes sense.
Can you post a picture of your mirrors. Curious how it looks.Quote:
