Abstract
A rearview mirror is located between a driver's seat and a front passenger's seat. The rearview mirror includes a housing, a reflector, and an interface. The housing includes a front surface facing the driver's seat, a rear surface at the opposite side of the front surface, and a slot at a part closer to the driver's seat than the passenger's seat. A recording medium is attached to and removed from the interface by moving the recording medium along a predetermined moving axis. The interface performs at least one of reading of data from the medium and writing of data to the medium. The predetermined moving axis is inclined relative to the width direction of the housing such that the predetermined moving axis approaches the center in the width direction of the housing from the front surface toward the rear surface.
