So I see alot of the two leg mirrors, what are the correct side mirrors on a 58 Belvedere, seems to be the stubby ones with some kind of hole facing the driver in the rear?

I think this is the real side view mirror

The mirror you have pictured is the more common mirror for a Plymouth/Dodge, but twin struts were available.

I like those mirrors on 1958 Dodges and Plymouths. When I see a twin strut mirror on a 1958 Dodge or Plymouth I usually think: "over-restored"

Exactly!

Twin strut mirrors were available across the board and could be bought and installed at the dealership as well. My lower class Dodge Regent (Plymouth Savoy equivalent) came with them originally.

Does the aftermarket offer a decent quality replica of either? All I find are Chinese junk.

Does anyone know the correct measurements for the placement. Where exactly they go on the fender? Im putting a single fender mirror on my biz coupe and it didn't come with one originally so no holes in the fender.
