Mirror swap?

My 79 F250 has the tiny factory mirrors, I am trying to put the 49-6525 mirrors from LMC on it. I need the threaded anchors that secure to the door panel does anyone know where to find them?

I used the rubber anchors that you can get from a hardware store. They worked really good for me. Seems to give the mirror some cushion on the stiff suspension and not vibrate as bad. I'll get some pics asap.
