I am trying to find a set of the DG4 mirrors (smallest version or "below eyeline" I think they are called?) in stainless similar to the last photo posted of the yellow/white truck posted above.

Since it looks like we have a good option for the mirror and the elbow...Does anyone know of a source of accurate reproductions of the mounts (tripod) themselves? LMC carries a couple of options, but the stainless tubing does not look correct (especially the top mount as it is only a flat "strap" as opposed to the correct "tube" with squished ends).

Basically, I would love to find a pair of the exact same stainless mirrors as the yellow truck above!

Any help greatly appreciated!

Here's a pic of the K20 before it was stripped down with the "original" (too big for me) mirrors and one of it taken a couple of weeks ago stripped down (original mirror holes welded shut)
They are 1972 only, not reproduced. Here is a set that just sold the other day:
