Thanks for your post but this illustrates the problem..see how your mirrors duplicate a lot of what you already see?? They show a lot of area you already see and make the extra area very small,.

Imagine if the mirror was flat and placed at an angle to the original mirror..now you would see the additional area but objects in that area would not be so small...
Its not so much a problem on the drivers side but on the passengers side ..objects are so small you cannot see them..

I was thinking of carrying a microscope and using it each time I glanced at the passengers mirror but.....

Why don't you just use a small flat mirror, and create the angle you are describing by putting something in behind on one side to angle it away from you?

Thats is exactly what I am trying to do...but how?? I am not the handiest guy on the planet..in fact if you remember the comedy Home Improvement with some buffoon who could not hang a picture straight..that was based on my life!

One of the company should design something like this to add on under our mirrors i used koso 380 degree but there are tons of designs to choose from i had these already .
