Default Left Side Mirror

Problem:

There is a blind spot on the left side of the driver that may cause you not to see a car coming up on your left side when changing lanes.

Is there any solutions to this problem besides Broadway Mirrors or Small Circular mirrors on the side mirrors.

Kinda a pain in the @rss but you can lean to the right side and quiuckly look through the small window behind the driver's window. Seems to work just fine for me so far.

Can you send me a link of the mirror? What was the price on it? Who is the manufacturer? Thanks for your reply.

when sitting in your driving position, can you see any part of the side of your car?

if so your mirrors arent adjusted properly. aim it out farther and the edge of the mirror will become the edge of your peripharal vision.

with a short car like the Z many use their side mirrors and rear view mirrors. and this just gives them blind spots on the sides.

I believe it was 49.00 USD including shipping from a guy on ebay.
Its a Nissan JDM Convex Mirror Part # 96366-CD400

This is the guy.

sales@australia-goldcoast.com

You could probably just order it from Performance.

Do these still defrost and have the power features. May be something worth buying...
