Angry Reflection in sideview mirrors

Does it drive anyone else crazy that the dashboard air conditioning vents show up as a reflection in the side view mirrors? This was even after I tinted the windows.

Do a search in the forums. Acura offers black replacements. They are about $44 each plus install.

To answer the OP's question, no, it doesn't bother me.

Quit focusing on it and the reflection will go away.

I concur with Mike_TX. At first I noticed it, now I don't. It's sort of like living near an airport. At first, all you hear is engine noise. After a few weeks, one gets used to it and any noise is much less bothersome, if at all.

I agree with jbr and Mike, I don't even notice it anymore.

I also agree. Plus, I don't like the black replacements and figure that there will still be reflections since I can see the vents themselves that are already black. But now I have to "look" to see the reflection. I don't notice it in normal driving.
