Hey all,

My wife bought this neat little mirror at the Baby's R
Us. It's used for keeping an eye on the little one in
the back seat. It mounts to the bottom of your
existing mirror with a bracket that has rubber stretch
hooks that go behind the mirror and hook over the top
edge. It's about 5" wide and panoramic. I'll try
taking it out of the car and hooking it up in the van
when my wife isn't taking the baby out anywhere.
