With the position of the rearview mirror mounted on the windshield, I can only see about 6 feet behind me, all the rest is blocked by the targa bar. Has anyone modified the mirror for better visibility? Mounting it on the dash? Mounting it lower on the windshield (it is about 2 inches from top frame right now)?

Is it the original windshield?
How tall are you?


I ask because I have no problems and see very well out the rear view.

I don't know if it's the originial windshield, and I'm 5'9".

IIRC, the rear view mirror should be down about 4 1/2" from the top of the windshield.


Yeah, my mirror is way too high.

Will I need a new windshield, or can I just yank it off and glue it back on lower?
