Thanks, much apprecaited. When fitting these mirrors did you use regular nuts fed up from below the dash or rivnuts fitted from above? Was just thinking about metal fatigue with mirror vibration over time. Or am I over thinking things again?

Nice figment and info . I have a 2017 , and run a “ Fatman “ 2”x4” rear view mirror. It’s a Hot Rod auto mirror. All polished alum . Avail with a flat glass or an awesome convex glass lense. They also have cool accessories and mounts. My mirror has a 1 “ threaded pad , which I epoxied high up on my windscreen center post .
