Wide-Angle Side Mirrors?

[cryptovince]

I was watching this video from Bros Fourr Speed about replacing the stock side-view mirrors on his '24 Civic Type-R with polarized, wide-angle convex mirrors.

Since we don't have blind-spot monitoring for our Emira mirrors, I think this would be a great potential mod.

I'm curious what others think and if they know any vendors that might be able to help create something like that. I messaged Rexpeed (since that's the company that makes the ones in the video) and another company, OLM. Still waiting to hear back from Rexpeed but OLM straight up told me they don't do custom models for cars other than what they already have available.

Perhaps this is something @GRP could look into making?

Assuming the left side oem UK mirror glass will fit on the mirrors on the US cars, that will be both the easiest and best solution. (Since the left mirror is the passenger side in the UK, it will be convex.)

I've put oem RHD left-side mirror glass (either UK or Japan) on my NSX, 993, 300ZX, Prius wagon, and my now-sold GR Corolla. Works great.

Interesting, didn't know that was a thing!

Seems like a good solution. I tried locating the RHD passenger side mirror on the lotus website with no success. Can you send the link so I can order one?
