mirror mounting
I just got a set of the standard car type mirrors for my bump. Can anyone give me some dimensions off of their truck to help me mount these mirros in a somewhat correct position?

Mount the mirrors ahead of the vent windows. If you don't, the mirrors will interfere with them, will not open out all the way, or won't open at all.

best bet is sit in the truck and have a friend hold mirror on door move forward and back/up down till you are comfortable and can see , mark and drill .
