Abstract
A flexible, shape-retentent rear view mirror is mounted to a support flange having a flange forward surface, with a positioning flange orthogonally and integrally mounted to an upper edge of the support flange. First and second mounting plates are positioned at opposed ends of the support flange in a coplanar relationship, with each lower edge of each mounting flange having a channel to receive the mirror plate therewithin to capture the mirror plate between the channels and the positioning flange. An arcuate spring plate having a convex forward surface projecting beyond the forward surface of the support flange is oriented between the support flange and the mirror to effect bowing of the mirror. Suction cups mount the organization to an interior surface of a vehicular windshield.
