I got my convex mirror at Pepboys - had the same black rim that I see in Patrick's photo. I removed that black rim (it also had a solid back) and removed the original mirror. The convex mirror, without the rim, recessed nicely into the mirror housing.

So, Patrick and Fordracing, you both stopped short of saying the mirror works well. As I said earlier I haven't mounted mine yet but, when I hold it up, it appears adequate. Are you able to actually see well enough with yours to trust it changing lanes, etc.? I agree that the best thing to do is to turn and look, but it would be nice to have a decent mirror. Regardless, it is obviously much better than the original flat mirror.

Regards,

Kevin
