Second this approach, maintain whatever angle you would use with cards, just increase the spacing / time of arrival difference between capsules.

That would've also been my choice under those circumstances.

I've used my MBHO subcardioid mics in a dinA mount many times when onstage or up close. Works great. From farther back you may not get the separation in the stereo image as much as you may like but give it a try and see if it works out. It was my goto arrangement in a few different places despite the "conventional wisdom".
If it's "what you can do" I say go for it.
If you are out in the open and can get more separation between them then that is a good idea. I use my directional mics quite often with ~25CM separation and less than 90 degree angle.

I run them NOS usually. On stage I will do a wide ortf. If further back in a venue NOS width with them at 60 degrees rather than 90 degrees.
robeti:
Thanks for the good advice everyone!
