Good solution. You can even “glue it“ in place the first time by applying some silicone and then once you tighten it down and leave it there for a few years you could probably remove and reinstall the mirror multiple times and not have to go inside the door to hold the nut plate.
Thx all. I searched out some you tube videos on Nutserts. That looks like the route I am going to take. I would have sworn that I got one of them apart on my door but I cant remember for sure and I have no picture evidence of my work. After seeing some videos, they dont look like that bad of a way to go at all.
The other hole next to it had one as well. When I was stripping the doors down, I could only get one of them apart, so I left this one in. I used needle nose vise grips on the outside a small wrench on the inside. Unless I ruined it somehow and had to cut it off. I dont remember.
Even though it is hex, I don't think it is a nut. I have seen and sold Genuine Ford rivnuts that are hex on the blind side. I've never installed them myself, I have always assumed the hex is to help the rivnut from spinning.
Good to know. I remember one was loose and the one in the door is still tight. I probably ended up cutting it off and just couldnt remember. If I would have threaded it off, it would be in my bags of screws and bolts.
