The O.P. pictures look like Van mirrors, for sure the mirror on the right.
I bought a van as a donor vehicle and hoped to use the mirrors. The top brace has a weird angled twist where it bolts to the door.
A truck mirror that brace has both ends flattened and are on the same plane ( like the picture lower down in another post.
No way I could get that brace to work on my truck door.
I bought a piece of 1/8" x 1" aluminum bar to use for the top brace, it won't be perfect, but there's lots of imperfections on my truck and I want mirrors I can actually see things behind me with.
