door mirror

anyone know if there is a blind spot mirror version, I don't mean stick on devices but a proper full mirror with the end sectioned off as the blind spot device.

Back in 86? When i had my MK1 Escort estate.. (From memory..!) I had these black plastic mirrors that clipped to the door edge half way up the quarter light?? (I think with allen key grub bolts?) It had a ball joint to the bracket half way down the mirror, & the glass face & mirror housing was approx (convex) the size of a pack of fags...

.... It was actually better than the crappy chrome door mirrors i had at the time, that never seemed to adjust right!
I don't even remember an OEM mirror fitted to the passenger side?!!!!
Cheaper by comparison to a race horse...

Early attempts at fitting my kerbside mirror was a major FAIL! I now have two holes in the wind deflecor, and no mirror fitted! :evil: It's the big bash next week so it WILL be fitted before then (or the holes in the wind deflector plugged at least!) #-o
