Carl, thanks for the URLs.  Great car I might add.

Your location suggestions seem to mirror Moss'.

Good to have a response from someone with first hand experiance; and, one who 
has tried several other cars.

I agree the fender mirrors are a "love/hate" thing.   Kinda hard to adjust by 
yourself, huh?
