Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

the outer third of the side view mirrors are convex allowing a much broader view to the rear. these mirrors were present on the porsches, vw's and mercedes that we drove last month. they make changing lanes much easier. does anyone know if they're available for purchase for u.s. cars and how difficult they are to install? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

POST 2Original post

They are available at suncoast motorsports on the net. although if you have elctrochromic driver side mirror it gets pretty expensive. I tried them out for awhile and simply couldn't adjust to them. So I went back to the simple convex drivers side which you can also get. I didn't pay the extra in eitehr case for the electrochromic since I find it of so little value. I simply program the last seat, etc, memory button the same as the 1st so both outside mirrors tilt down about 5 degrees, and then I use that setting at night.

POST 3Original post

West, where did you get your simple concave drivers side mirror? I've found the Porsche Aspheric Mirror but not the other.

POST 4Original post

If they don't put those mirrors on North American cars it's probably because there is some DOT, NTHSA, or other Fed agency regulation against it....like the distance from the ground to the headlights type thing.

POST 5Original post

Suncoast porsche has them you just have to call and ask.
