Two questions:
1. Can water get between the OEM mirror and these and cloud the blind spot light in a 2 or 3 LT?
2. If put on both sides does it disorient you in that the only way to really judge distance is only the center rear view mirror?

That could happen but probably a little squirt of clean water would clear any dirt build up. But probably the least useful accessory is the "blind spot indicators" because the car in the blind spot has to be so close to you for them to activate that they are almost completely useless.

If you just carefully align the top edge of the panoramic mirror with the top edge of the stock mirror holding the bottom away from stock mirror and then slowly rotate the mirror down to it's intended position until the 3M tape meets the stock mirror, it will be perfectly aligned. I think the cardboard method almost guarantees that it will end up misaligned.

Gonna stick to something like these. I appreciate the dual-view aspect of the inset; I find it helps me judge distances/ranges better than a single view. Plus, if my mirrors are angled to just slightly show the side of my vehicle, these will basically sit in that pocket, and cost me 0 viewing angle (I put them inboard and low, rather than outboard).

If you look at my posts above you can see I had some real concerns. I did put them on both sides. I should of done it earlier. NO blind spots.
Yes you can eliminate blind spots mostly by adjusting the mirrors but this is so much better and I can see the side of my car all the way out beyond the lane besides me.
Best mod I could have made. With the center camera and the mirrors the vette is so much easier to maneuver.

Since the OEM passenger side mirror is already convex, for anyone that has it- does the Sandyeggo passegner side mirror have a significantly wider field of view, or is it negligible?

I did both sides. Great view. The passenger side is wider then stock and enough to make a difference. No blind spots now on any side now.

While I didn't get the passenger side, I'm pretty sure that was a typo considering how wide the driver's side is.
