Default Door Hinge Mounted Side Mirrors…

Are they even usable due to engine vibration?

About the same as any mirror on any Model T. A lot depends on construction and weight of mirror. Any mirror, vibrating or not, is good to have.

I found that the mirror is pretty reliable for adjusting the spark advance. Adjust the spark for the best picture. Using a convex mirror eliminates the problem, but I am not sure it is period correct.
