Actually, I looked a while back, and in NY you have to have an outside mirror on the right if you have tinted windows or no back window (e.g., a panel van). The one on the left is mandatory as well. I'm considering buying peep mirrors from some sort of hot rod supply, probably Mooneyes, as they are pretty decent to deal with. I just have to figure out how to blank off the mirror holes without looking goofy.

I really should get a big convex rearview, though. That would be pretty sweet. Not that the xB has a problem with blind spots, or anything, given the giant windows, but I have a thing for knowing what's going on around me.
