Jamie, Yes and No !
I want a Convex Mirror, that will fit under the '06 Ranger Mirrors, but I really want a Rectangle, something in the area of 4.5" wide x 3 or 4" high, maybe a 4" square will work for the driver's side.
I know I will probably end up with a round mirror because first I can't find the rectangle version the size I want, and two, the ones out there that have the slide on clamping do not work well at all. they are designed for the masses and build that way.
I now have some of the aforementioned slide on clamp type and it is holding up so far without a car wash, but the view is very limited and the mirror is a plastic chromed over... the reflection is poor at best.
I spent most of yesterday afternoon looking for something, did searches in every wording I could think of, without results that were acceptable to me.
I will do some more today, raining and is suppose to for three or four days.
At least I have the wires through the housings on the '06's.

When I had the '88 Ranger, with the Loop Type of Mirror Mounting, I like those, I had mounted on the Driver's side a 4" Round Mirror in the Loop of the Mirror mount. It was the best location, never got hit, never got bent from Washing, was always there, it allowed me to see my rear tires and rock while working around them. I was trying to get the same rearward look BUT I don't remember if they were Convex or Flat Glass.
I also wanted to mount the Mounting Brackets with through bolts while I have access to the insides, a little LockTite and all done.
