Here's the deal with the 550 Spyder style mirror. I can see quite a bit more than I expected to see before mounting it. And yes... its not as much as you might be used to with a conventional door mirror.

To make up for the visual deficit I had a Wink rearview mirror installed... the kind that covers the entire width of the windshield. These things are great with one exception. They're not good when you're on the race track. Your helmet obscures a large percentage of your rear view.

The reason for the 550 mirror was simply because I saw another 911 hot rod with one and I loved the look.
