An automotive, side, rear view mirror accessory in the form of a prism configured to be adhesively attached to the standard automotive, side, rear view mirror, providing the user through refracted light with a wider scope of vision with regard to the reflected image in the rear view mirror. The prism's positioning, size, and angle of refraction can be configured in varying degrees in order to provide the user with maximum efficient viewing of any "blind spot" which might exist at any particular angle with regard to the normal angle of view. The prism unit may be adhesively mounted to a standard automotive side rear view mirror utilizing "off-the-shelf," transparent cement, or, alternately, the unit may be a one-piece construction wherein the prism and mirror are molded as one, or the prism itself may have a backing of reflective material, thereby dispensing with the necessity of transparent cement. The prism is located at the outer edge, namely, on the outer, left edge for the driver's side, rear view mirror and on the outer, right edge of the side, rear view mirror on the passenger's side.
