I am going to be installing these on my dads truck soon (freshly painted) and was curious if there is supposed to be a gasket BEHIND the big metal plate to protect the door?. They came with a gasket to put between the mirror and the plate but not the plate and the door. Also the screws are too big for the holes in this plate. Is it ok to ream them out a tad or is that wrong?. Thanks
