i use a 5 panel wink mirror for my primary, which gives almost 180 degrees
of rear view.
without turning my head i have a 360 degree view minus the blockages from
the  b/c/d pillars and the driver's head.
i also added small concave stick-on mirrors to the side mirrors to extend
the coverage into the blindzones.
i prefer to have the side of the car as a reference when glancing at the
side mirrors and it's also handy for viewing the lane striping when backing
into a tight parking spot.
