Think about how you would adjust those. Considering you're posting on o, let alone 4chan, you likely dont have the friends to help you with the job.

Fender mirrors.

Even some cars sold in Australia had them factory in the 60's.

Only if set up badly by some idiot in their backyward

Otherwise they can be really neat and you don't even have to turn your head to know what cars are behind you.

Even a few American cars had them, this one did it wrong though since you can still adjust it from the driver seat.

They have mechanically adjustable mirrors, my car has them. The mirror has a wire for each axis that goes back to a knob inside the car with a gimbal that has the 3 wires attached.
