Wemoto list mirrors for the XBR that look pretty similar to the originals but I haven't used them myself ( the mirrors that is, Wemoto are a good place to deal with).

Thanks Steve- i have seen those and wondered how close they are to the originals.I have used Wemoto before and found their products reasonably priced and of good quality.I might contact them as i want something that looks like Mr. Honda's fitment.

These might be a possibility too.

This had me thinking back trying to remember what these looked like, I must have seen dozens of the things over the years, and I seem to remember two different types but not with big differences. The backs I think were quite chunky, very rounded and I guess the chances of finding anything exactly like them outside some nos somewhere is pretty slim. I think either of those pictured will be about as close as you can get, the wemoto ones likely the closest.
