I generally don't trust any of my mirrors because my summer daily (81 VW convertible) has giant blind spots when the top is down, which is basically all the time.

For the Probe I got a $4 convex bicycle mirror from Target and stuck it to the interior rear view. It worked fine until the adhesive let go. I plan on getting full width race mirrors for both cars. On the outside I carefully taped over it with black duct tape, from the bottom first, working upward so water doesn't get in. It looks fine from a few feet away and most people don't even notice it.
