Blind Spot Mirrors

If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle's blind zone.

Actual Mirror View

When the approaching vehicle is a long distance away, the image in the main mirror is small and near the inboard edge of the mirror.
