I still turn my head when I lane change, but that is really just paranoia kicking in.
You just need brighter back up lights . I have same tint and I think the same mirrors as you (except mine are heated and have the led turns which I have not hooked up yet) and haven't had problems backing up but I think there is always street lights wherever I am backing up at night.
