Park the car and do not ever work on another one as long as you live.

Perhaps you can close your eyes and install the mirror.
Or better yet drive with your eyes closed and your won't need a mirror at all.


It's a no brainer. Look at any other car in your driveway.

Not too many moveable parts to confuse the issue.

I can't help......If it was a RHD mirror I might know the answer

Buy a windshield adhesive and mount just the metal brace not the entire thing let the adhesive dry and you should be good to go

the part the screw goes into could be stripped...try a lil thicker screw if u want to ghetto rig it and just smash the screw in there..and maybe throw some super glue on it lol
