Default Help me find some door mirrors

I need to find some side view mirrors for the ute. Range Rovers did not really come with factory fitted door mirrors until the mid 80's.

What they fitted tended to change with the dealers selling the car.

So I need a set of mirrors for the ute.

As just about every car for the last 20 years has had unique electric mirrors, the selection of universal type door mirrors has reduced over the years.

The only ones I can seem to find are basically crap.

So I am after a set of mirrors that will mount to the door panel. I am after ones of reasonable size, but am not after truck style mirrors.

I want something that will collapse in when hit by something.

So if you have any suggestions, tell me what vehicle there off, or a link to where they are for sale.

How about a mid eighties Mitsubishi Shogun? They mounted them low on the door and are fairly large + fold back when hit by something? They are oblong and a bit truckish looking though.

They are getting close to what I am looking for.

I just don't know whether I could put any parts from that car on mine. Here they are called a Pajero. In Sth American Spanish, Pajero means a wanker. Just don't know whether I could have any wanker parts on my ute.
