For those who want to use them, a convex mirror on the driver's side outside mirror is certainly an improvement and should take care of any other concern with blind spots.
Wow. That's really good to hear that it isn't really a big issue, once you get used to it I guess.
I was really going get a different car if it was a huge issue.
Thanks for the input.
I'll be sure to put convex mirrors.
