Question Mirrors Mounted On Auxiliary Light Bar?

[BAD MIKE USA]

I think the stock auxiliary light bar end bolts have threads that match some common mirrors threads. 8mm. ISA SCREW-M8X30. I'm thinking of finding a pair of mirrors to mount there, reminiscent of some old bikes I have seen. On the end of the chrome light bar in this picture of my bike. I am about to install some much lower handlebars, I have already removed the windshield and loudspeaker. I like mirrors below my bars but don't want to foul the fuel tank when I turn the bars full crank. I don't want to go with bar end mirrors.

I install a Short Pair of Biltwell mirrors on the Bobbed R18 project; they fit nicely inverted, via the existing Brake-Clutch reservoir mounting points.

The were mounted on the Lower Beach Bars without making contact with the tank; plus, they allowed me to use the Mini-LED directionals.

I have seen quite a few older BMWs with the mirror mounted to the headlight shell mounts. I'm not sure if you have enough room to put them in behind you windshield mounts though.

This pic is essentially what I am trying to do. I removed the windshield already.
