Adjusting Car Mirrors from Steering Wheel

[Thunderbird1]

Would it not be simpler to adjust car mirrors with LEFT steering wheel thumb scroll for left mirror and RIGHT steering thumb scroll for the right rather than using using just the left only for both ..just a thought ..

Sure, but the current system does mimic the adjustments on many cars.

That's no reason why it shouldn't better than many cars though is it ? It's only a software change I'm sure.

I adjusted my mirrors when I got the car ... that's it, haven't touched them since. It's of little importance to me if there's a different way of doing it. There are plenty of other control issues that would be higher up the list, for me, if recommending improvements.

My point was that it's illogical to do it the way they do. Wholeheartedly agree with your last sentance !!

It seems more natural to use both scroll wheels. I have adjusted my mirrors, steering wheel position and seat several times now as I'm still not sure which settings I find most comfortable.

Never seem to get the mirrors just right..

That may be true if you want to do them one at a time but if you are suggesting being able to do the left and right at the same time one through each wheel. there could be one set of motor controllers shared between both.

Same here, the driver's mirror doesn't seem to have the full range of motion. I'll be asking the mobile service guy about that tomorrow.

I don't think my brain could cope with doing both at once

Apparently not being able to see the blind spot is normal - you are just the wrong height
