You guys are so right about the vision limit.
I added spot mirrors to mine and it helps some with the rear vision.
I figure Im bigger than most cars and trucks now and I made out of real American steel.
So I pray alot and poke the nose out and hope to intimidate my way across.

re: Western mirrors
Scored a pretty clean set of western-style mirror brackets for $10 at the u-pullit yard. Only had the mirror in one and it was cracked along with bent sheetmetal.

where can you get the glass?
Someone mentioned where you could buy the mirror glass for the western style mirrors. I cleaned up mine, but the glass was already replaced by someone who did a home-made job. Anybody know where you can get the piece of mirror glass for these??

re: Western mirrors
Any commercial glass shop should be able to cut that for you pretty inexpensively.

re: Western mirrors
I actually need replacement mirrors including metal shell for them. One is tater'd pretty bad and the other side is completely missing.
