I never thought about that. Good observation.
I run a similar setup when towing but my universal mirrors clip to the door. Top clip has a sheetmetal clip which hooks over the top lip of the door, by window sash, and the bottom clip hooks over the bottom edge of the door. They are a universal design that was popular back in the 70's and 80's. They are ugly as sin but work quite well. As soon as I get to the campground and back in, they get removed. They stick out a mile and surprisingly enough vibrate very little.
I had larger aftermarket mirrors on my Burb when I bought it and didnt like the look. So I went back to OEM. The other problem I had with the larger mirrors was having enough room in the garage to walk around it. Its a tight fit parked next to the wifes mini van in the garage even with the smaller mirrors.
