Velvac Mirrors

Mine are Model 2025.

The spot mirror impossible to adjust to my liking. Has anyone had success modifying it? My problem is I cannot get it out and down enough.
IMO it is just a poor design.

I have seriously looked at replacing the heads but the $350 plus price tag is outrageously high for a mirror that is not very high in quality.

The blind spot mirror should be aimed so that the inside edge of the mirror just barely sees the edge of the RV. That gives some depth perception.

Exactly. They way it is now I can use it to comb my hair.

That should work. Never thought of that.
