I WILL be removing BOTH mirrors.

LETS NOT TALK ABOUT LAWS OR SAFTEY IN THIS THREAD LIKE ALL THE OTHER SIDE VIEW MIRROR THREADS!
(You can see WAY better with a convex mirror and it is legal in TX)

Now, I will be using two round convex mirrors inside the door like some of you have posted. My question is;

- Use 2" round mirror
- Use 3" round mirror

?

I am thinking 2" may be big enough and 3" just annoyingly big, anyone with interior mirrors have any suggestions?

-------------------------------------------------
And for predictions, how much do you think I will gain in mpg? (I will be removing both, remember); 38mpg right now highway at 65mph.
