New door mirrors

The chrome on my old mirrors is looking pretty dingy these days so I decided to replace them with some new ones from BG. I really don’t want to be the guy who is always complaining, but again, these were not a direct fit without modification. They came with small phillips screws to hold them to the door. My truck has M6x1.0 torx head screws. I had to use a 1/4” drill bit to enlarge the holes in the new mirrors. No big deal. After that they fit fine. They are a little floppy though. The passenger side moves in the wind at normal road speed. They look good though!

I bought replacements from LMC and they were quite nice I must say. They came with the black plastic pads and new correct screws, too. Fit and finish was great.

I have the other type mirrors I got through LMC also and I also think they are pretty nice looking.
They also came with the plastic pads and all the hard ware for mounting, even the nut serts.

I'm just about 50 so you have a few years on me. I still find it amusing that Google went from a proper name to a verb lol
