Re: Sport mirror plates with weld nuts?

Sorry I was not aware there was a factory variation on the screw type. The only kind I remember seeing were the machine screw style.

As far as the backing plate, a big blob of weatherstrip adhesive works well to hold it in place. For a long term solution just line it up and put a single pop rivet throught the door and plate. It is easily reversable later for bigger mirrors. Or if you wanted a little wiggle room use an oversize hole in the backup plate and a longer rivet with a backup washer through the oversize hole.
