Correct position for wing mirrors

Just getting to the end of the restoration of my Grampian Grey BGT. One thing that is left to do (amongst many others!!) is to fit new wing mirrors. Can anyone tell me the correct position and style of mirror to go on the front wings for a 1967 model?
I want to make sure of the correct position and style before I start drilling holes as I want to keep it as original as possible.

I think back in 67 wing mirrors would be a dealer fit extra
Clausgaer lists the various types available
However in the interests of safety I would recommend fitting the Tex door mirrors from later 1970s cars. I have done so on my 65 roadster. Needed on motorways and motoring abroad

Hi Phil,
Would it be something like this with one on each wing, maybe with a more rectangular mirror head though? MGOC have them for about £66 per pair.. Gulp..

Hi Dave
Thanks for the photo - just need some measurements for position!!!!
Are they legit for Europe and motorways as per earlier response?
You GT looks good.
