Tri pod mirror mounting?

Can anyone tell me where to drill the holes in my doors to hang my tripod/ camper special mirrors? I can't find anything online and I only want one set of holes...
Thanks

My mirrors only mount at 3 points. The pic appears to have 4 bolt holes. I wonder if a factory assembly manual would show where on the door they go?

There's actually 5 because the top rail has 3. Maybe. Or someone here with them could measure their's.

i think i know what mirrors you have, 2 bars down & 1 bar up. i would post pics of mine, but this server swap isn't letting me load right now. if these are what you have, the 2 lower bars mount barely above the body line about 2-3" from the leading edge of the door & the top bar mounts in line with the vent window channel

Dieseldawg, yes those are the ones I have. If you get a chance and the site cooperates a few close ups would be great!

Thanks
