They will have the writing on them like the one i have here. all the convex lenses are required to have the writing by law, because it object you see in the mirror are really farther than they look in the mirror...

Just out of curiosity... why would you want them? You know if you properly adjust the stock mirrors, there are zero blind spots right? (There is a trick to it that works on most cars actually). And then stuff in the mirror is not closer than it appears 
I can see someone on either side of me at any spot without looking back over my shoulder.

ahh.. ok. I was thinking it was for the convex part.
On a side note, my 96 saturn has a convex mirror on the right side... funny thing is that it is the car I cant really adjust the blind spots out of

. What I'm surprised they haven't thought of, was an angled mirror..something subtle, like having the inside part of the mirror looking down the side of the car, then the outside half angled at about 20 degrees.
