[Healeys] Talbot mirror as mounted on door

My car has the mirror hole in the door not the fender. I wasn't able to get
the Moss Talbot-style mirror to align properly - no problem with the product
if it's mounted more forward on the fender. 

 

But on the door when mounted with the bullet axis straight fore-and-aft, the
mirror cannot be angled enough toward the driver to see properly out of it.

On the door, the axis of the bullet has to be pointed downward at the front
in order for the mirror to be able to rotate sufficiently to see out of it.
IMHO this doesn't look right.

 

If a replacement convex mirror were available that might do the trick.
