Default PIC REQUEST: Blind Spot Mirrors

I am thinking about getting a little round or square blind spot mirror to make the S a little more relaxing to drive in heavy traffic with the top up. Can I get some pics of little blind spot mirrors you guys have? I am worried it will look lame

you can get mirrors with convex and they cover your stock mirrors, there was GB up a few months back.

I had them, they didnt stick very well and didnt really function as well as I'd hoped either. If I took that approach I'd get the Muz one that totally replaces the stock mirror (mounting hardware and all).

tires and wheels look great. that looks fine. i wasnt sure how it would look on a smaller car, but that certainly doesnt look bad. Does it help with visability?

absolutely. Esp with the top up, there's such a huge blind spot. With these mirrors, I can change lanes without having to lean forward and check my blindspots multiple times

these are great! no glare and the convexed image goes two lanes over. in my truck i use round convex mirrors but for the S, these are the cleanest. just pop off the housing and boil off the old mirror and glue in the new ones. then replace the assembly back into the housing. 15 minutes for both. easy.

Huge thumbs up for Spoon wide mirrors. I love mine, they reduced the cars blindspot, incredibly. They also reduce glare, alot.

You can see the convex shape they have in this pic:
