    My right side mirror is convex (things appear closer than they are). I have a hard time using it to judge when a lane change is safe. Is there a way to replace the convex mirror? I could then use a small convex mirror for blind spot. Thanks.

    Hard to say if the Rav4 mirror, even though it has the small convex mirror in upper right hand corner is itself convex or not. It still has the "objects in mirror are closer than they appear' statement etched into the lower edge...

    Maybe someone with a Rav4 could confirm...

    The RAV 4 mirror has the small inset that should perfectly "zoom in" on the blind spot.
