Default Undermount mirrors

Riding a 2012 Slim. I've searched and asked around, but haven't found any mirrors that will clear the tank when bars are turned fully. I dont want mirrors that attached to the grips. Does anyone on a Softail have any advice or a finger that can point me in the right direction? (I mean the nice finger). I'm looking for something simple and somewhat functional (even if it involves only having one mirror). Thanks.

My favorite mirrors I use them on all my bikes.
European street fighters.no vibrations till 150 mph - tested on european highwaysTESTED ON:
- 2002 Buell X1 till 140 mph
- Honda CBR 1100 XX Blackbird Streetfighter till 180 mph

here is a pic or two.
The green Indian looking bike was My last bike, look at the mirrors.
I could see perfectly, no mirrors polluting my bars either.

I realize this is an old thread, but I’m searching for a solution that would allow me to mount mirrors underneath the bars on my Softail Slim without relocating the turn signals.

The OP never replied re: where they got the above mirrors from. If anybody knows, please chime in. I bought a set of the Arlen Ness mini oval mirrors, but they still bang in to the turn signals. Or if anyone else has another solution, please let me know.
