A control system and method for controlling side mirrors of a vehicle involve controlling, by a controller, a touch display to display a user interface comprising (i) control elements that enable a driver of the vehicle to control positions of the side mirrors, (ii) a simulated field of view of the driver generated based on current positions of the side mirrors, and (iii) an indication of any portion of the simulated field of view of the driver that corresponds to a blind spot of the driver, receiving, by the controller via the control elements displayed on the touch display, touch input from the driver indicative of desired positions of the side mirrors, and commanding, by the controller, an actuator system to position the side mirrors based on the desired positions indicated by the touch input.
