...have one:

1. On either of your mirrors

a. driver side
b. passenger side
c. both sides

2. Convex, plain, one that rotates/tilts, etc.???

3. And, if you do, what size and shape???

4. Finally, where do you place it on the side mirrors:

a. top-right;
b. top-left;
c. lower-left; or
d. lower-right


I ask because I usually put one on each of my mirrors but what with different blind spots on the Patriot and so many here with so many years of experience(s), then I would hope some will have some better insight into the placement and type than I do.

Thanks in advance!
 
Suggested placement is on the bottom OUTSIDE corner of the mirror. I have them on both side all though I feel only the drivers side needs it.

I have non-tilting (tilting mirrors loosen up with time and move by themselves with vibration) round convex mirrors.
 
Compared with my old Caliber the Patriot has NO blind spots, so my mirrors suit me just fine left as is.....But!! Dont forget I drive on the wrong side of the road with my steering wheel on the right!!
 
I too added a convex to the lower outside of just the driver's side. Passenger side is fine. Small convex rectangular for me.
 
I have a rectangular convex stick on mirror on the drivers side only, lower right position. Even when properly adjusted, there's still a touch of blind spot without it, and the mirrors are large enough you aren't losing anything.
