Here's the replacement for that. I think this is the best helmet mirror out there. I have one and have used it.

It's a good mirror, but it drives me crazy having a mirror in my line of sight or peripheral vision all the time. I like either the Italian Bike Mirror or the Bike Eye. Both work well. The Italian Bike Mirror looks better and is a little more fiddly to set up. The Bike Eye gives a clearer and larger view.

With ANY mirror, you still need to turn your head and take a solid look if you are turning to cross traffic. The mirror gives you the advantage of only needing to do it after you're pretty sure nothing is there.
