Got my mirrors from Police Interceptor (Joe) yesterday. Got SOOO lost on the way there. All good though.

Modded my mirrors with a 3 inch grinder (overkill, I know, but no dremel) and sandpaper.

I had trouble with the passenger side. I didn't mod it right the first time so I have to unscrew the bolts to take it off. Instead of the nuts coming off 2 of the screws backed out of the mirror mount

So I fixed the mirrors and tried to remount them. I tightened down the one nut and tried to spin the nut/screw combo back into the housing. No go. It just kept spinning around the hole and didn't push in. I tried to apply pressure to the mirror but I got nothing.

So now it is on but only secured up top. The bottom screws wouldn't go back in. And I can't get them out of the door since the nut is tightened to the extreme on the screw.

It vibrates a bit while driving and rattles. ANNOYING. So I packed up the bottom (1/3 inch gap between the door and mirror) with foam trim tape to stop the rattle but it looks like poop.

Any advice?

 

dang you those could have been mine! looks good!
