I don't think I've seen them listed for sale anywhere. I would venture to guess that they do not have any of the features of the stock mirrors, and will provide more wind-noise, due to the design. You might be able to find something on Ebay or AliExpress.

Since I'm not seeing any aftermarket C8 mirrors (just cosmetic mods), your best bet might be to just have those removed entirely (block-off plates bolted onto the mount location), and see if you can mount some motorcycle mirrors directly onto the a-pillars. Jeep Wrangler owners sometimes do something similar when they take the doors off.
Alternatively you could see if you can get a blockoff plate with a 10mm threaded socket on it...which would allow you to screw-in the standard-threaded, universal-size motorcycle mirrors of your choosing--onto that location.
Here's an example of one type of block-off plate (not for corvette).

They do make a-pillar triangle covers for C8:

You might be able to get a piece like this, fab it up with bolted-on ATV/UTV/motorcycle mirrors--and then attach it with heavy-duty velcro (for temporary use) or heavy-duty adhesive (for permanent attachment).
Good luck!

I don't think there's any mandates regarding side mirrors on passenger cars--other than they have to exist. Can't use exclusively cameras. AFAIK, turn markers, blind spot warnings, etc--are all fluff and not mandated by law.
That's why I suggested motorcycle mirrors--as they're about the most basic, functional tool for the job--and you can probably mount them just about anywhere on the A-pillar you wanted. Ala Ferrari Testaross.
