    There are DOT ones and offroad ones. It is pretty easy to tell them apart when folks are using them in oncoming traffic.

    I guess when you said fogs I was thinking you meant the DOT SAEs. I definitely agree anything non DOT would be brutal to look at oncoming.

    I had a flip style mirror but opted for the auto dimming/compass/outside temp mirror from https://www.bobsmirrors.com/ (no home link because I don't need it).

    The dimming function stopped working and he sent me a replacement mirror even though it was out of warranty.
