My 1966 1800S has the antenna mounted on the rear passenger fender and a really good looking (I think) mirror mounted mid way up the drivers fender. Since the car is on EBay right now you can look and see what you think:

I did not like the look of the stock Volvo mirror, so I found an aftermartket unit that I think looks better. Placement does require a bit of getting use to, but I now find that I really like and it fells "natural". Many people have commented that the placement looks factory to them. If I had to do it again, I would but a pair of mirrors and put one on each side.

Good luck
