Hey Don Shillady---no problems with my brake lines----I purchased lines with the fittings and flares already on them (you can buy them in any length in 1" increments, in mild steel, real cheap). The only thing that I had to do was purchase the proper brake-line wrenches to tighten them up with. Denny--I like the look of the mirrors up high as I showed them----your right, if I mounted them low enough I could bolt through the top of the door skin or cowl as you showed. I just like the look better up high. I thought about using the threaded hole that I have in the top of the post, but next year when I make the convertible top, it would screw up my header attachment points. I can't use a through bolt either---whatever screw or bolt I use to attach them with has to be "blind" in the outside of the post. If all else fails I can probably beg one of my machine shop contacts to mill me a set of arms out of stainless, but that would really be a last resort.
