Sadly, that mirror still would have been useless if you didn't have the snorkel.

x2, get yourself some Ditech mirror brackets. They mount to the door hinge away from the snorkel and the passenger mirror is still fully functional...

X2, I have these and you can't see anything with the doors on if they're in the brackets

Search for American outlaw mirrors. I have a set. They sit in the top hinge after the doors are off and tighten with an Allen screw. It is backed with a soft plastic piece that won't scratch the paint.
