I would prefer peep mirrors for the shorter sightline. The same size gives a larger field of view. OTOH the Beetle door has a 90 degree flange that complicates things.

My panel van had nuts welded onto the mirror arms with rectangular convex mirrors that mimiced the stock inside mirror's shape. With chrome acorn jam nuts. They gave a great field of view. The inside mirror had a small window 12 feet away.
