Phil, If you notice that the LH hinge that is made to accept a hinge mirror has a flat machined on it and a threaded hole for a screw that allows the mirror to move with the door by fixing it to the hinge. Most RH hinges do not have this flat or hole for the lock screw so be advised as you check for mirrors for that side. I suppose an Aussie version of the (RH or for them drivers side) hinge may be the ticket or maybe grinding a flat and drilling and tapping a hole on what you have.
