Both side mirrors will be pointed more to the side than you're probably used to. You will not be able to see the side of the car unless you lean over. This may seem unnatural at first, but I guarantee you it's much better. You'll get used to it.
With the mirrors adjusted this way, your blind spots will effectively be eliminated. As cars pass you on the left (or right) they will appear in the left (or right) side mirror before they disappear entirely from the rear-view mirror.
This is how the CHP adjusts their mirrors, and it's very effective.

i do have the small 2" round mirrors on all of my cars, they fit perfectly on the outside edge of the mirror and with them i don't have to be leaning way over to one side or the other to hopefully see an un-seen vehicle.. jim

This is the solution: sitting in the driver's seat, lean way over to the left, all the way to the side window. Now adjust the left side mirror so you can just see the left side of the car. Next, lean just as far over to the right and adjust the right mirror the same way.
Both side mirrors will be pointed more to the side than you're probably used to. You will not be able to see the side of the car unless you lean over. This may seem unnatural at first, but I guarantee you it's much better. You'll get used to it.

This is a much better solution to your problem.

This is what I've used on my last 3 corvettes and my wife's last 3 cars. Don't need those ugly extra mirrors. Use the rearview mirror at the top of the windshield for viewing directly behind you.I don't have any blind spots.

Exactly. It takes a little getting used to but really works.
