Did the 1967 Mk1 cooper S come with door or wing mirrors or does it not matter?

External mirrors were not factory fitted.

The dealers would fit BMC approved mirrors

These were 2 Wibroc types fitted to the MK1 Cooper S

There are fixing holes in both wings and in the driver's door. Is it better to fit all 3 mirrors or plug some holes?. Bit of a naive question perhaps but any thoughts?

The closer you can get the mirror to your head the more you can see in the mirror. I don't think much of the mirrors on the guards.
