If I am not mistaken, the side view mirror as mounted on the fender has one central screw adjustment and then the mirror (Convex in design and not symmetrical) can be adjusted to point in, out, up and down. Some of this is done with the physical adjustment of the mirror itself, the rest is done by the turning of the mirror assembly so as to point the convex outside of the mirror just the opposite of how you want to see while sitting in the drivers seat. No matter where the mirror is mounted, as long as you can see the face of it from your seated position in the drivers seat, you should be able to adjust the mirror face to show the side of the car and a potential blind spot.


Two pictures attached for a visual check on what you are describing.
