I have a 2SS and often drive in rush hour traffic. I have my mirrors adjusted as illustrated in the previous post. The blind spot indicator is an interesting idea but GM's implementation leaves something to be desired. The blind spot indicator lights up in normal traffic as cars pass by on both sides. It lights up often enough in daily traffic that it has become background noise. It does flash if you have your turn signal on while a car is in the blind spot but if I'm paying enough attention to notice the flashing I also see the car in the side mirror. Another problem is that it isn't terribly bright so in daylight driving it doesn't really stand out. I've had my Camaro for almost 3 years and I just don't find it to be terribly useful. It is fine that my Camaro has it but I won't spend big money to get it on a future car unless they improve the implementation.
As a side note I smile every time I sit in traffic behind another car and can see the driver's face in their side mirror. If I can see their face then I know they have their mirrors adjusted incorrectly. It is surprising (and disappointing) to see how many cars have their mirrors adjusted like that.
