Default smaller rectangle mirrors below the bars

Does anyone have the smaller rectangle mirrors below the bars? Do they hit your tank? (Soft tail, Night Train, Breakout) Kind of like this picture.

The bike on the pic only has one mirror if I'm not mistaken - the left one. The position of the mirrors on the Breakout (not sure about other bikes) is not symmetrical due to the different mounting position on the clutch bracket and the master cylinder unit. Thus I can imagine that only the mirror on the left stays clear of the tank when mounted underneath the Breakout stock bars.

That makes sense.

I've got pretty much the exact mirrors on my '16 BO. Only difference is that mine are rounded on the ends, not square. I was able to get both mirrors mounted under the bars and adjusted so they don't hit the tank. If you give me a day or so, I'll get you info as to where I bought mine from. They came out of the UK.
