Re: finally got fed up with the rear-view mirror
 

Or, you could have done what I did: When I put a new windshield in my
CJ I left off the mirror. After a year or two you can't see details
through the plastic rear curtain anyway, and I learned to drive in a
windowless Econoline so outside mirrors are second nature to me.
Connecticut requires that I have outside mirrors if I don't have one
inside, so I'm covered there.

I _think_ that the move to glue-on center mirrors was mandated by the
NHTSA as an impact hazard to occupants.
