I'm not sure if the acorn nuts originally used for the W.C. seniors are the same as those for the below eyeline mirrors. If not, disregard this.
The originals for my below eyeline mirrors were more pointed than the stainless and cad plated versions I located. The chrome plated versions I found were about the same as the originals. I bought them at a Menard's home center. I know there are no Menard's stores where you are, but I think most hardware stores carry chrome hardware. Usually it's in the specialty hardware you'll find in the small steel drawers. The chrome seems to be very high quality. I doubt the nuts would be any more susceptible to rust than the chrome on your mirrors. Here's a picture.
