Mike, "stock mirrors" don't exist. Pcars hit the distributor and
dealers w/o mirrors.

Paul,
When I got my Evolution III outdoor cover back in about 1989, it came
with a DIY mirror pocket option. I had to make holes in the cover and
glue the pockets to the cover with 3M weatherstrip adhesive, and I made
a bit of a dog's breakfast out of the job, but it worked.
I presume you are talking about an indoor cotton cover? In your case I
would imagine you just order it with one or two mirror pockets (as
needed) and it comes ready to go.
I have CCC cotton covers for my GT350 and Cobra and they are both
perfect.....
