    Default Alternate Mirrors?

    My wife doesn't like the location of the RT mirrors, too low and if I lean just a little left or right she can't see (I think she needs to lean also, but I'll let someone else tell her that! ). So she wants them raised up a little and moved out a little. Anyone know of an aftermarket add-on?
    I'll bet I could make something out of a RAM mount!!!

    I'm not sure I understand. Is your wife in the front seat or back seat?

    When she's in the front seat. I guess I'm a little wider than she is, I don't have a problem when I'm driving.

    Default Adjusting the mirrors

    Those mirrors are large and perfect for me.

    The problem may be the adjustment.

    If she can see you then they are not adjusted properly.

    It's like driving a car you Do not adjust them to look at the side of the car, you adjust them out, so that you cannot see your car at all.

    Then move your head around to get the full view.

    My daughter is the same way, she cannot figure out how to use the side mirrors correctly.

    They are adjusted properly, out to the side where the blind spot is. It's the lower location. If you wear bi-focals, they are a little low. You have to tuck your chin quite a bit to see clearly. Like I said, I don't have a problem with them (other than the bi-focal thing) but she is picky.
