Thanks all for the responses. I guess that I will have to see how this mirror works for me after mounting it tomorrow. My concern is that I can't adjust my eyes to see what's on it. I may also have to look at the eyeglass mounted mirrors again but after the first experience, I am holding off on those as the last resort.

This is one of my problems. I don't have the ROM to turn my neck around to see what's behind me, only what's to the left of my shoulder. Actually, I am suppose to be wearing trifocals, but I get by on bifocals quite well. I do have a pair of glasses for the computer which makes up for the intermediate vision. I did try one of the bar end mirrors and had a difficult time seeing clear images on them because they fall into the above vision range. They are slightly to close for the normal vision area of my glasses and too far for the diopter to focus in correctly. I'm having cataract surgery on the right eye next week and that is going to change a few things so I will be looking into this further when I get my new glasses, if the helmet mirror doesn't pan out.
