ABSTRACT:
An auxiliary mirror assembly is comprised of an auxiliary mirror, a coupling device affixed to a back section of a conventional, existing rear view mirror, and an elongated, rod-like deformable member interconnecting the auxiliary member and the coupling device. The deformable member may be shaped by finger pressure for movement of the auxiliary mirror relative to the conventional mirror about any one of a number of vertical and horizontal axes in order to shift the auxiliary mirror toward a selected, inclined position to view children in the back seat or enhance observation of traffic to one side of the vehicle. Once deformed, the member is self-sustaining to retain the auxiliary mirror in the selected position although additional, subsequent one-hand movement of the auxiliary mirror is also possible. The coupling device includes an adhesive pad that is readily affixed to the forwardly facing, back section of the conventional mirror so that no portions of the opposite, reflective surface of the conventional mirror are obscured.
