new mirror update

Finally mounted my 2 - 80's style mirrors.
my wonderful neighbor , lent me his nut-riveting tool( with a step drill I dilled a 3/8" hole ( 4 steps ) & rivet mounted the hidden nuts. didn't need to remove the inner door panel. additional mounting bolts etc, below X two.

Each side required:
2 - 3" SS bolts,
3 - flat rubber washers ( 2 pac= $0.92)
3 - SS flat washers,
3 - large nylon spacers,
Lots easier to see, & swing-a-way to boot. !
NO ADDED BLIND SPOTS, like the california style western mirrors & wing window divider produced.
drivers side mirror is flat, passenger side is convex. BIG & WIDE VISION even with camper sticking out... Glad I switched..
total price around 99 dollars day & 1/2 labor
of course I'll now add a filler piece, but for now rock solid & spiffy
