I feel the same way about the removal of side mirrors. They're there for safety reasons...

First, no one would drive without wipers in a downpour. That would be stupid.
Second, deleting exterior mirrors and putting a wide angle on your rear view eliminates any blind spots you had before. It's better than stock.
People get way too nervous around here.
