    have you tried "stack similar"?

    If that doesn't work you could just delete half the mesh, UV that half, and mirror a new half, since it's been UV'd already, the new mirrored halfs UV would already be stacked.

    I'm new to maya.. don't know whta is that. I'll search)
    overlap doesn't go in my case maybe.. the pieces should be mirrored somehow to look the same direction.. It lookes so complicated, that I just left as it is

    Open your UV editor. Make sure UV toolkit is visible. That is under tools in the UV editor. You should see an option that says show UV Toolkit. I hope this GIF helps.

    The simplest way is to simply delete one of the parts, and re-mirror the other mesh.
