They do.
I am going door mounted. I couldn't get comfortable with the placement of the window mounted ones. The style is in keeping with a 70's RS so the Durant style or a pre 69/or 356 b mirror. There are some differences, but we will see how they look once the car os finished. The drill holes are the same.

^^^ They are extremely close to the original. I was very lucky to get these made. There is a usual 6-8 month waiting time to get this made, but because they are local in Vancouver they squeezed in this set in between their usual Singer and other quota.

My biggest concern was the fronts as I went with quite an aggressive fitment in terms of off set. It seems to fit perfect and once cambered and lowered I think it will be right on the money. There will have to be some adjustment or cutting of the liners to prevent rubbing, but that will be in a few weeks once the suspension change and calibration starts. The end is in sight!

They should. It should all work together once the suspension parts go on. New dampers, tie rods, etc etc. Car will be lowered moderately so the camber will be adjusted for a good street ride. By my calculations this should bring the top part of the tire in line with the fender and should provide enough clearance for turning. Front ET 43, Rear ET 56, however this is not exactly how they will fit, because of the way the wheels are constructed. I made some adjustments so the inner barrel in the rear will clear the trialing arm. The reason for the aggressive front fitment is to push the track as wide as possible, to help with front end grip. Together with sway bars I am hoping to make the car neutral, and dial out the understeer to my liking.
