Whew..
I searched the archives but came up empty. Would someone mind pointing me in the right direction?
By looking at the cowl on my truck it looks as though there has been a mirror there before. It has a thin coat of filler, and looking underneath where the mounting holes are supposed to be I can only see one... and it appears to have been filled with lead. I have no idea where the second mounting hole should be, how to gain access to it if it is there, etc. I feel like an idiot, but I'd like to make sure I get this thing in the right spot the first time. I don’t like to drill through vintage metal any more than I absolutely have to.
Thanks,
-Chris.

You'll see the support bracket, etc and where the holes are for the mirror. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 587 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 587 | And if you ever want to put a mirror on the passenger side, take the same advice and apply to other side. | | |
