I don’t know which sub-forum this should be in but this foum says “Steering” and that’s the closest I could find. I hope this isn’t a dumb question. If it is, just pretend it isn’t ;)

I’m petite and short — 5’4”. And I wish I could see a bit better, mostly through the rear view. I have the ladder and I understand the ladder and spare obscure the view no matter what. And I’m used to some of that bc of my 2 former Discos 1&2 and my LR3. In those cars I removed the rear seat head rests and that helps a bit.

In some other thread it was mentioned that it’s a good thing to make the driver seat higher. Why? Does that help with visibility or is that for something else? What about one of those wider rear view mirrors? Or something else…?

It might be something I just need to live with but thought I’d ask in case there’s something I’m not thinking of.

Maybe one of those camera mirrors from Wolf would suit?

I would definitely get a wolfbox. It was one of the first things I installed. Also eliminates blind spots pretty much as the camera angle is quite wide.

The wolfbox camera will help a lot. You do lose viewing via the rear view mirror.
