I made sure to check that before removing them...Washington (where the car is registered for now) requires a driver's exterior mirror, but Illinois (where I'm in school and where it will be registered once the tabs expire) only requires "a mirror so located as to reflect to the driver a view of the highway for a distance of at least 200 feet to the rear of such motor vehicle." Funny this comes up now, too, as just last night I was pulled over because one of my tail lights was out--the officer noticed the mirrors, I'm sure, and didn't say anything!
