Thread: anyone have the same problem with the mirror in the way ?

I tend to have a bit of a lower back slouch to see under it. I'm 5ft 10.5

you need to look under it ,,, wonder why they made it so large ,,,
Think i will change mine for a ford one ,,,,

You do sit high in these things. I have to stoop a bit to see under the roofline. I haven't noticed the mirror being in the way as I'm always looking over it.
A bit less height in the seat would be nice. Just an inch or two.

just 25 to 50 mm would make so much difference ,,
will look tomorrow see if i can find away to drop them <<
maybe turn the rail`s over ??

I'm 5/6 so no problem for me. I knew there was an advantage to being short...:-)

I'm 6ft 3 and honestly haven't noticed a problem with the mirror, I have electric seats though.
I do find I do look at the headlining though.

I dont have a problem . Never notice it in the way

As the roof line of most vehicles have become lower over time, due to design changes etc., I have found that I have to bend my neck to look under the rear view mirrors. At work I drive various makes and models of vehicles and some of them you could hide a B-Double behind the "A" pillar. And then there is the difficulty of getting out of them after a several hour trip. You need to fold up like a "bunny" knife.
Possibly why I like driving my series 3 so much.
