Default Alternative outside mirrors?

I have a 76 with the stock type outside mirrors. I really like the sport mirrors on later C3's. Does anyone know of an alternative aftermarket set that are fixed and don't require a cable? I can do sport mirrors, but if there is something better, I'd love to take a look. Thanks.....

I was kinda interested in this myself. I was looking for a mirror I could mount to the window pillar and have nothing on the door

That car is outstanding. Is it yours? Incredible. Your right. The mirrors are great. I have a 13 and didn't even consider that. The big deal for me is to be able to cover the original holes in the doors. At least I have examples in the garage to help me with that.

My ZZ4 feels so dated now! Lol..... Thanks for the input....

Yes, but the later shark mirrors moved further forward, really close to the fender, and with bubble mirror stick on's function really well.....

see my sites below page 3 on photobucket....
