Default Eckler's Panavex mirror kit...feedback?

I was looking at this kit for c5's that has a "distortion-free, panoramic lense that attaches directly over the stock mirror lense. Sounds like a good idea but I wouldn't mind hearing from anyone who knows anything about it and/or has one on their vette.

Any information is greatly appreciated

Thanks

I definitely am loving mine. Initially you get a slight bit of disorientation when reversing, but that goes away quickly. I no longer have to sit forward and look over my shoulder when merging onto the freeway.
