Euro aspheric mirrors for these cars?

Anyone know of a source for these. Have them on other cars and I love them!

Those mirrors are really annoying. Has them in Europe. Adjusting mirrors correctly in US cars results in the same view.

I am well aware of correctly positioning mirrors, to optimize field of view, however these mirrors provide a wider angle view, but anything viewed through these mirrors seem to be smaller. As mentioned before I love them and they are also great when positioned correctly. US cars have the same effect in the right hand side mirror, but they all carry this warning, OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE CLOSER THEN THEY APPEAR. So with that said, I'm done.

Hmm, never heard of these? Are they like mirrors that cover your blindspot? Do they still have the dimming function on the driver's side?

They provide a wide angle view, so you see more through these mirrors, the downside is that cars viewed through these mirrors are actually closer then they appear to be, once you adapt to that fact I think you will love them. I think some are autodimming, some aren't. I'm sure IND can comment on the ones they offer.
