Well, I finally got around to taking some measurements. I did not take the mirrors off, but rather took measurements from 3 points on each door to the base of the rubber gasket. On this first picture...the key to the alignment is the yellow line...that line when looking at the car from the front should be vertical on both sides!
Also, for strength, you must use the 911 backing plate. I riveted mine on after having the holes cut in. Drivers side: Attached image(s) |

I found a 911 that had the mirrors removed and copied the holes with a pencil/paper. The trick is to get the mirror mounted so the top is pretty level. Several I've seen were mounted a little too low and the mirrors look like they are drooping.
The pass side has to be mounted further forward than the driver side too. And, there is a thread done by a member showing the measurements he used. I'll see if I saved it and post if found Good luck, it's a great improvement visually |
