I did your inside mirror mod.
Using a squared off fisheye mirror, it's about 2-1/2" square,

NO blindspots.
The only drawback is I can't use it to back up as I can't see the ground near the car.
But on the highway,
I like this better than the original side mirror with the small fisheye on it.
My panoramic rear-view mirror solves any backup problem, but I miss seeing the ground too because I like to check that I am "centered" when I park in the really narrow spaces. I may put a "tiny fisheye" in the side view mirror at some point.
