 I am six foot too .    I extended my rear view mirror downwards by cutting
it and re-assembling with a piece of copper tubing and JB Weld.  It works
great,~ 2 1/2 inches lower.    I painted it to match the rest of the interior
(brown).    I can see under the a/c.
Only problem is that it leaves a gap above the mirror now that the sun gets
through at  times.      I have that blocked with a stick-on overtaking mirror
which allows me to see if my hair needs attention and other equally vitally
important things in the van.
