They need to be slightly away from the side in order to "see" straight behind the car. Since mine are mounted on the stock supports for the mirrors (I can still mount the mirrors for inspection, or if I sell the car) they show me vehicles that are directly behind me. When a large truck is right behind me -- I can see it in all three mirrors (both video mirrors and the rear view optical mirror).
Do you experience much "glare" into your eyes at night from the monitors?
