mine is on, but clouded, ugly - has anyone replaced it with a RHD mirror (to get rid of the "objects are closer.." effect? I presume they are the same size..

Change the glass only - they are on ebay.
I am sure you cannot mount the glass from the driver side. This has another shape. Maybe you buy yours on European ebay - I have never seen that "objects ....." here.

GL, Helmuth

Typical American lawsuit liability stuff. It's the same reason our key fobs can only lower the windows and not raise them.

I know. I used to drive a Chevrolet TransSport in the past.
Anyway: it is as it is :-)

Reference is to RHD, Right Hand Drive cars - I got a 'objects look..' Driver's Mirror purchasing a replacement in Canada (for a Honda, gee, wonder what the source was..).

Anyway, the convex is not -that- bad on the X, just wondered if anyone had done it.
