final configuration

The lower three tiers of tufts show a marked improvement!
For the 1985 Subaru XT, the engineers moved the mirror out, 80mm from the glass, on a thin stalk. All Tesla, some Aston Martin, and Chevy VOLT are doing the same.
On the T-100, going to the SCCA race mirrors dropped the mirror drag from an indicated Cd 0.027, to Cd 0.10.
Nice testing, thanks!
