And... As I found out, make sure not to block the operation of a vent window
if it's a GT6! Ah yes, ask me how I know.

Subject: Re: [TR] TR6 door mirrors
They were fitted to both doors of a Triumph 2000 I had as a company car and I
found them far better than the bullet mirrors Iâ??d had years earlier on a
Spitfire. Before you fit to the passenger door, Iâ??d advise you have someone
hold it so youâ??re sure itâ??s in the right position for use.
