Agreed, tbh its not worth even considering anything but the genuine article, as nothing else fits as securely. Considering the shape of the mirrors is oval, all non MGR mirrors are designed for straight edge mirror casings, not curved.
I had aftermarket ones at first, but they constantly need tightening, they wobble, and one was even pulled off its mount by the vacuum caused by a passing artic, travelling at speed.
