Since the switching control of the anti-glare state is also performed at the same time, the reflected images obtained by the mirrors 27R, 28R; 27L, 28L can be visually recognized without a sense of incongruity.

  Further, in the automatic anti-glare mode, the left integrated mirror device 29L and the right integrated mirror device 29R are independent of each other, and the anti-glare and non-glare states of the exterior mirrors 27L and 27R and the interior mirrors 28L and 28R are changed. Since switching is performed, only the dazzling side of the left and right sides of the vehicle can be in an anti-glare state, and excellent visibility can be obtained according to the surrounding environment of the vehicle.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the side window glass 34 is colored and the rear window glass 26 is not colored has been described. However, the present invention is also applicable when the rear window glass 26 is colored in the same color as the side window glass 34. The invention can be applied. In this case, the exterior mirrors 27L and 27R, which are variable color mirrors, are colored when the side window glass 34 is opened, so that the exterior mirrors 27L and 27R and the interior mirror 28L regardless of whether the side window glass 34 is opened or closed. , 28R can make the color tone of the reflected images substantially the same.

Side window glass 34 in further a is impossible opening can rear window glass 26 is to apply the present invention is also applicable to the case of non-coloring.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various design changes can be made without departing from the present invention described in the claims. It is.
