so mybee you con screw a flat plat to the arm and if it dosent
work your only out $15-$20 its a lot cheaper than the one from the harley shop.
O.K.--We got peep mirrors. I made up adapters from stainless steel and polished them, then mounted them this morning, as per the solid model. It seems to work allright, and it looks good. I used #10-32 stainless steel screws to mount the adapter to the windshield post. The post has only one layer of fairly thick sheet metal, so I drilled and tapped it and used blue loctite on the screws---time will tell if this will be strong enough to support the mirrors without a problem. I mounted the mirrors about 1" below the top of the post so they won't interfere with my top header when I make my Carson style top.----one good thing here, I didn't have to modify the peep mirror in any way, just removed the "flange" that gripped the door edge. (it is attached with one bolt).
I'm having the same problem mounting the peep mirrors I can't seem to get your pic to come up maybe u could post them again or e-mail them to me
Thanks

Looks great!!! Where do you buy your stainless steel screws?
I buy all my stainless steel fasteners at Brafasco in Ontario Canada,---I'm not sure that they are in the states. you can also get them at fastenal, which I think is international.
There's a fastenal here in my area. I'll have to check with them and see is they have any chrome stuff like this.......

That's a cool deal but does the window hit the mirror when you open the door ?Quote:
