Passenger Side Mirror Etching
Hey guys,
I'm trying to remove the "objects in mirror are closer than they appear" etching on the passenger side mirror.
Does anyone know a safe way to remove it? I've heard razor blade, lacquer thinner, and I've heard that it can't be done.
If it can't, then does anyone know if you can buy the mirror glass itself without the etching and just replace the glass? If so, where?
Thanks! All advice welcome!

Its permentally etched into the BACK surface of the mirror
BEFORE the reflective coating is applied. NON-removable.
Moss Muscle has replacement mirrors that dont say it on them.
I believe these 'Birds Eye' view mirrors dont say that on them as well.
And you can buy only the pass side instead of having to buy both...
