I don't think so. You can only turn if off and on. It may be based on the current position of the mirrors though (not sure). You could try setting the normal position of the mirrors a tad lower.

Mirror tilt does give you double the angle [1degree shift in the mirror angle --> 2degree shift in image], but you may be able to gain 1 to one by adjusting the seat or even bending the neck. You can further shift image by moving the seat forward/backward or neck or both.

Andy does the mirror shift the same angle from "set" position? There is got to be a physical limit on the travel, but an option for the OP would be to set the mirror normal position biased towards the reverse tilt.

Salim
ps: I read Andy's response and he indicates it is an option for OP to test it out.
