Disclosed herein is an assembly for attaching a rear view mirror to a vehicle. The assembly comprises an intermediate member configured to slide with respect to an arm that extends outwardly from a mirror base, a proximal end of the intermediate member being configured to interlock with the arm such that the arm and intermediate member become rigidly joined. The assembly also comprises a mirror head support configured to slide with respect to the intermediate member, the mirror head support being configured to interlock with the intermediate member such that the mirror head support and intermediate member become rigidly joined. Also disclosed is an extendable rear view mirror assembly.

An exterior rearview device includes a base suited to be fixed to a vehicle, a head mounted on the base, at least one of a mirror and a display attached to the head and at least one of a camera and an illumination device attached to the base, a locking system with a locked state and an unlocked state, where the head is removable from the base in the unlocked state, and the locking system is suited to be actuated by a driver of the vehicle to switch between the locked and the unlocked state, and vice versa. A vehicle includes the at least one exterior rearview device.

A sideview mirror assembly for a vehicle can comprise a body including a sideview mirror housing. The sideview mirror assembly can include a camera located in the body about the sideview mirror housing. The camera can have a field-of-view including an above-horizontal region directed rearward toward an overhead target position past the sideview mirror housing. The camera can be mounted for movement relative to the body between a normal position, in which the sideview mirror housing intersects the camera and the overhead target position in the above-horizontal region, and an extended position, in which the sideview mirror housing does not intersect the camera and the overhead target position in the above-horizontal region. Movement of the camera from the normal position to the extended position can unblock camera visibility of the overhead target position by the sideview mirror housing.

A side view mirror assembly includes a base frame configured to couple to a bracket that is connected to a vehicle static structure. The base frame interfacing with the bracket through a guide that is at least partially received within a pocket when the base frame is coupled to the bracket. A mirror housing assembly is adjustably supported by the base frame.
