I used the talbot-style mirrors. They look great, but visibility is rough due to the rise and flare of the rear fenders. Plus my location is not quite right. I am going to relocate before painting. My Everett Morrison Manual shows placing the mirrors (WHAT SEEMS EXTREMELY) far forward on the fenders, over the front top corner of the side louvers. I thought it looked strange, but I can understand the logic behind this placement now. The right side mirror, as small as the lens is, is almost useless anyway.... for the driver. I trust my rearview and a quick glance more than the mirror. I usually only look at the side mirror when I am backing in and out of the garage. ( I am usally in the Passing Lane!!!) .
Good luck!
