Abstract
A mirror assembly for a motor vehicle includes a base that is fixedly secured to the motor vehicle. A housing is fixedly secured to the base. The housing defines an opening. A mirror is operatively secured to the housing at the opening. The mirror defines a main viewing portion and a spotting mirror portion wherein the main viewing portion and the spotting mirror portion are fabricated from a unitary structure. The mirror is a reflective element and defines a main viewing portion of one curvature and a spotting mirror portion for viewing the blind spot which is defined by having a radius of curvature less than the main viewing portion. Both viewing portions of the mirror are integral to one unitary structure that is fabricated from sheet metal such as steel, stainless steel, or aluminum that may optionally be chrome plated, polished, or anodized.
