I am not having luck with the search . I got a new passenger side mirror and stalk for my '52.
I look under the dash in the inside and see 3 holes on the inside.However it looks to me the mirror bracket should be mounted with the holes vertically not horizontally.
Any suggestions or pictures would help.
Thanks Jeff

My mirror bracket has only 2 holes. If I am not mistaken to mount a passenger side mirror you must drill new holes in the cowl.

Here you go Cool Chevy. I found this after I typed mirror in the advanced search and got to the fifth page. Denny Graham wanted to know about it on his '50 if that was the way to do it. Here's another. And another.

jdl,
you are very quick at understanding how this board works. You are putting us older folks to shame!.

coolchevy,
The mirror bracket mounts in a very similar fashion to the driver's side. If you were to remove the glove compartment, you would see the reinforcement plate on the inside with the two holes in it. Then, all you need to do is drill two small pilot holes from the inside and then finish the job from the outside in.

Thanks guys,
I took another look and found the other "pilot hole".
It's all mounted and looks great.

Thanks, Truckernix, but you are the ones that put me to shame with the information and experience that I will need when I get my truck. Of course, I will get that when I get the truck. grin
