The side-view vehicle mirror is an exterior mirror for use on a vehicle. The mirror can be rotated 180° when the vehicle is parked so that the glass surface of the mirror is moved to a protected position within the mirror housing and a more durable back cover for the mirror is presented externally to the vehicle. The mirror can be made to rotate from controls located within the passenger cabin. In some embodiments, the hidden exterior vehicle mirror rotates into the protected position by itself whenever the vehicle engine is turned off and automatically rotates into the usable mirror position when the vehicle is restarted.
