I've seen guys running similar mirrors on Jeeps (with the doors off) quite a few times here in Washington (still internal to the car)
not sure if it truly meets the intent of the law
There is an ecomodder thread that addresses this:

In SC, the law only states that if the vehicle is constructed or loaded as to obstruct the driver's view to the rear, then a rear view mirror capable of seeing 200 feet behind the vehicle is needed, otherwise you don't need one.
