Thinking of putting a side view mirror on pass side of my '73. If I remember correctly when havin the panel off, the nuts are welded in place on the inside for the screws aren't they? Even though it would pain me to do it, you could drill from the inside through those to create the holes?
Can you just turn the mirror around to use a spare mirror from the driver's side, or it a different part number for right (pass) side? I may chicken out when it comes to drilling the holes though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

Some debate as to whether there was a factory passenger mirror part number. I suppose the nuts were there for right hand drive cars... |
