I posted too soon...for these mirrors.

Also, anyone buffed out these rust streaks on the clear coat? It doesn't look like its penetrated the clear. I'm trying to get the surface rust taken care of this spring

well, if you were in michigan, midstate bolt and screw.

They are not anything special.

Probably find them down at the hardware in the special bolt bins.

I got some like that at the local Ace Hardware. If no luck get them from Fastenal. Go stainless!

These mirrors were on it when I bought it and they're great for towing. I didn't even think about going to Fastenal. Thanks for the input

I made the mistake of replacing just the bolts, the rust streaks returned because the nuts inside the door are not stainless. You can get them at a marine store too but they might be $$, after all it's for boats

BTW: If you remove both bolts at the same time the nuts will fall into the door. They are attached to each other but not to the door itself.
