Re: Does anyone make bigger mirrors that mount like the old ones do?
I have those mirrors and they are hard to look through at highway speeds because the vibrate. You have to adjust and lock them down a lot too. I prefer the 5" round ones.

Re: Does anyone make bigger mirrors that mount like the old ones do?
They do vibrate on the highway, but it may help (a little) if you get the flexible gasket that goes between the arm and the door skin. Also, the cast iron arms on the earlier models seem (to me) to be a bit more resistant to vibration than the tubular ones. But yeah, they vibrate. The only time it really bugs me is if I'm trying to decide if I see a cop or other important vehicle way back there, then I steady it with my hand to get the "high def" picture.
