THERE IS HARDLY ANY RIGHT REAR VISION ; REDUCED VISION FROM THE FRONT MIRROR THRU THE REAR WINDOW; REDUCED VISION FROM THE DRIVERS SEAT TO THE LEFT REAR. THE PROBLEM IS PRESENT WHEN CHANGING LANES AND BACKING. THE PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY OVERSIZED HEADRESTS ON THE MIDDLE SEATS WHICH ARE CAPTAINS CHAIRS. THE HEADRESTS ARE 9\" IN HEIGHT AND AS WIDE AS THE SEAT. THE PROBLEM IS FURTHER EXACERBATED BY THE BLACKENED TINTED WINDOWS. WHEN DRIVING YOU MUST CONTINUOUSLY RELY ON YOUR SIDE VIEW MORRORS AS THER IS NO VISION TO THE RIGHT REAR.

THE DRIVER'S SEAT HEADREST ALSO OBSTRUCTS VISION WHEN BACKING AS THERE IS NO LEFT FIELD OF VISION CAUSED BY THE HEADRESTS.
