I now have the correct mirror and mounting bracket, but I've no holes to fasten it. Is there a measurment I could make to get the corect location? I did a search and looked at hundreads of truck pics but none gave a great view of the mount location. Any info or a pic would be most helpful.

Poke around that area shown in the pictures with a wooden match stick until you find one. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 57 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 57 | Thanks alot guys, great info and pics!!
