On an A-body, the driver side mirror (plain or remote-control) is better than nothing, but only just, and the passenger side mirror (whichever style) is useless because it's far too small and the flat glass gives much too small a field of view. There are self-adhesive convex mirrors you can paste over the flat glass, but then you just replace one problem with another: the field of view is too distorted to give an accurate sense of where other cars are. There are some recent developments in side view mirror optic technology (see
here and
here); unfortunately I don't foresee anyone making them any time soon in sizes to fit an A-body.
