    Mirror, mirror on the door...

    You should be fine, just as long as it is only the passenger side.

    California Vehicle Code:
    Mirrors

    26709. (a) Every motor vehicle registered in a foreign jurisdiction and every motorcycle subject to registration in this state shall be equipped with a mirror so located as to reflect to the driver a view of the highway for a distance of at least 200 feet to the rear of such vehicle.

    Every motor vehicle subject to registration in this state, except a motorcycle, shall be equipped with not less than two such mirrors, including one affixed to the left-hand side.

    (b) The following described types of motor vehicles, of a type subject to registration, shall be equipped with mirrors on both the left-and right-hand sides of the vehicle so located as to reflect to the driver a view of the highway through each mirror for a distance of at least 200 feet to the rear of such vehicle:

    (1) A motor vehicle so constructed or loaded as to obstruct the driver's view to the rear.

    (2) A motor vehicle towing a vehicle and the towed vehicle or load thereon obstructs the driver's view to the rear.

    (3) A bus or trolley coach.

    (c) The provisions of subdivision (b) shall not apply to a passenger vehicle when the load obstructing the driver's view consists of passengers.
