If what you're talking about is the style in the link at bottom, I liked this style of mirror and found a pair very similar to it at Autozone for dirt cheap. Very "factory" looking install in the corner and mine's been on a year on both drivers and passenger sides with the 3M tape with no issues. Be careful to allow free travel of the mirrors when you set it in the corner though. Wasn't careful onthe passengers side and it bumps against the mirror housing when I adjust it sometimes. I hate the "bulls-eye" fish-eyes that distract most folks and this works great.

My first advice calls for a free fix first. Adjust your mirrors properly before deciding you need anything extra. Most people have their side mirrors adjusted to see behind them with significant overlap between them and the rearview mirror. If I am behind someone and can see the drivers face in 3 mirrors, they are not adjusted correctly. Start with this. I have never found a need for more than the three OEM mirrors on any vehicle I've driven. Okay, when I tow a trailer or have something blocking my rearview mirror, I bring the side mirrors in a little siice I do not have towing mirrors.
