Anyone recommend IVA wing mirrors?

Anyone found a suitable type of wing mirrors (for any Indy with no windscreen) that are IVA compliant.

I guess something that will bolt to the scuttle but have snap back without fine adjustment. There is also the rule about the bending on 10kg impact, so long fixed mount stalks are out of the question too.

The rules are a bit ambiguous as it says you must be able to adjust them from the driver's seat. Well I've got gorilla arms and can probably do that anyway even with R1 mirrors, but again its all about interpretation.

Hi,
Thanks.
I had a re-read of the IVA deatils on mirrors after I posted. It looks like this is the one change which has not shafted locost cars as the bend and snap back only applies to mirrors that extend beyond the extreme edge.
i.e. the front wheels prevent problems as after an impact here, the need to push your wing mirror back into place whist in the drivers seat is the least of your worries.
