This very blind spot problem has almost had me a few times, now i remebered that you could get an integrated wide angle mirror glass, for the wing mirrors, when i went to BMW about 4-5 years ago they said you can't get it anymore, wondering if anyone had any joy on these items!
They would be useful for all of us, avoiding that avoidable blindspot!
For the mean while still using my neck like a machine on the quick roads!

I bought mine with one of those old man blind spot mirror things, the small mirror stuck on the inside corner of the drivers mirror. Was planning on removing it but it works a treat so I'll keep it on...

i ahd these on my clio, still used to look over my shoulder though as they can't and don't remove all blindspots but they are useful as they just allow more visability....wich is never a bad thing.

Are these the little sqaures of mirror that you place on your existing mirror?Never actually used one, but i may try and get one just to see if it helps.I always check my blindspot, but it dosnt hurt. I was driving on a daul carrigway tonight, not much traffic,f**king windy though, and wet as you like, my car was all over the place, went to change lange, and saw the lights in my left blindspot, but if i hadnt of checked it i would of gone into him.....Better be safe than sorry, although somtimes i do forget,you get very sloppy somtimes, hell i have, and ive only been driving a couple of weeks lol

hte ones i had on the clio were proper ones bilt into the glass. liek split about an inch from the outside and it was looking more behind than towards the side of the car then the rest of the mirror, if you get what i mean. never used the stick on ones, but they are the same principle

Oh right, so its a differnt mirror glass, opposed to a stick on piece? On that picture of Demlots car it looks like the right hand edge is at a differnt angle, would be nice to try one of these.
