68 Remote Mirror install - what the heck? - 01/19/17 05:28 AM
ok so I'm calling in the cavalry - because either I have the wrong stuff or this doesn't make any sense.
I have a 68 - original door and I thought this door was punched for the remote mirror because of the large hole and odd mounting holes on the door. I got a remote mirror and the funny bracket but I'm not seeing how they line up. Did I goof....?
Looking at driver side door outside left to right
screw hole then Large hole tear drop, oblong hole, screw hole, 2 oblong holes
Maybe this is an early 68 door and I need a 67 remote mirror?
Photobucket isn't working or I'd add pics. Will once I get something working.
Pic copied from another post - looks like holes at top of door are the same as mine.

Searching around looks like I have a type1 68 door - and that does match the round mirror I have and I think the double post bracket - but no idea how to install this. One screw through mirror into bracket then small screw from bracket into door? The bottom of the bracket is buldged is that supposed to go in the large hole, or is large hole for the cable?
