ABSTRACT:
The auxiliary external rear view mirror set has a smaller auxiliary convex mirror mounted on a smooth comparatively larger base mirror so that the smaller auxiliary convex mirror may be tilted to a limited extent to more precisely position the wide angle field of view it provides. The convex mirror is attached to a tilting plate by an adhesive means. The tilting plate has a central projecting member with a cavity. A support plate attached to the smooth base mirror by another adhesive means has a corresponding central bar with a spherical head which engages in the cavity of the tilting plate so that the convex mirror and tilting plate are pivotable. Stop pieces mounted on the support plate spaced from the central bar are positioned to be engagable with offset members attached to the rear side of the tilting plate so that the tilting of the convex mirror is limited to some extent.
