I was lucky enough to get new "orig. style" door mirrors/arms for the '59 for Christmas and although the driver's side door had the orig. mounting holes/tap plates, the pass. door does not. does anyone know if the "correct" location for pass. side is a (pardon the pun)mirror image of the drivers side?
Thanks and Happy New Year to All,
Jeff

Thats the way I mounted the right,(passenger) side mirror on my 55.I believe the curve on the right was different from the left side.

to find the right location to drill thru the door skin, take off the inner panel and look inside - there's the same plate attached in there as on the drivers side, and yes it's about same position, w/ a slightly different shaped arm
