This may be in a thread somewhere but I've never been good with the search function, if so, please supply a link. Otherwise, here goes...
Finally installing a pass side mirror and will be taking off the door card, etc. I assume I'll want to drill a small pilot hole from the inside through the nut so the holes are in the right place. Any other suggestions so as to not "hurt" a perfectly good door and paint job?? TIA. |

I drilled mine from the inside using a vix bit... this will center a small hole right in the middle of the nuts. Then I threaded a bolt up thru the nut from the inside and used a small bit in a dremel to clean up the hole. The bolt will help to reduce damage to the thread. Mask the out side first. Go slow and get a perfect set of holes.... right where they need to be.
