Subject:      Convex right side mirror: Do they exist&do you like?
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII


Hello all--


Did the Vanagon ever come with non-electric convex outside right door-mounted
mirrors. The kind that says "objects in the mirror are closer than they
appear."


If they did and you've got experience with them how do they rate? I've never
owned a car with this convex-type mirror. But I drove my sister's mini-van (a
van called Quest) and the convex mirror seemed to be an asset for lane changes
in the potentially blind spot. Is this a good idea for my Vanagon?


If I'm reading the catalogue right WCM sells a "convex head" non-electric
mirror for the vangon for about $95--ouch. Are there cheaper options?


TIA
