And, I might mention, on MANY cars this is a V easy mod - the factory mirrors fold in toward the body (I guess to avoid damage in car washes and so forth) allowing you to do an A/B comparison of mileage impact!

This is kinda slick, no?

USDM CiViC
Prius

Personally, I've thought about removing my outside mirrors - I know they kill mileage at freeway speeds, but mirrors come in handy in bumper-to-bumper city traffic.

Heh!

I'm gonna have to look into these 'JDM power folding mirrors'.

Dude, the japs always keep the best for themselves, don't they!?!?!
