You don't have to have the E mark, as long as the equipment complies with the standards on size and radius. This applies to lights and all other
parts. Fit your mirrors high on the scuttle where it curves to the top surface. If it's fibreglass put a metal spreader plate behind it for
reinforcement. You have to be able to see over the rear wings comfortably to pass.
P.S. knock the caps lock off, it's easier to read.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
