Mirrors

My passenger-side mirror is nearly useless because it's not convex. Does anyone know of an OEM or aftermarket replacement that looks the same but is curved? I have the Western-style ones with a triangular bent stainless steel frame, and the mirror sitting on that, not directly on the door.

I think the covex mirrors suck for backing. I just use a 2" peal and stick on outside bottom corner of each mirror.

Same here. I like the stock mirrors to judge distance on that side while driving, with a 2 1/2" or 3" peel/stick mirrors for backing up to judge the area.

I like using my driver's side one as a rearview, but this is my first vehicle with a flat pass-side and I don't like it. I like how big the mirrors are, I just want a curved one there. 2" fisheye doesn't work for me (it does on the driver's side, but too small at the passenger's).
