There are some drawbacks to having it stick out to one side like that, such as only being able to lean it on the right side, but so far it has been worth it. I'd actually like to order another one as a backup, but the Amazon page indicates that it's availability is now unknown. :-(

I agree - super mirror that gives great vision! Here's where I got mine...
