How much do right side nets block your view of the passenger side mirror?

I understand it needs to be attached to the fire wall but...Brant I have patience and I'll wait till you bring her out of storage. Perhaps I should speak with the shop...Have you got contact info for them. You can PM me.
TIA

I posted this in NASA forums a while back.

Here is mine, I mounted to the corner of the battery tray. The driver's side is mounted actually behind the driver so the net wraps around the seat a little. I would have liked to mounted more torward the center in front, but then it interfered with my access to the shifter.







For me to get it to clear my shifter it did block my right side mirror making that useless. So I installed a 5 panel wink mirror inside the car and it took care of that issue.

Just be sure whatever you buy is SFI 37.1 - otherwise you're really rolling the dice on whether or not the net will actually hold up under impact.
