For what it's worth I didn't install the mirror supplied with my car. Instead, I purchased a mirror with a post, made a simple bushing, and mounted it in the front side-curtain hole. No holes in the fiber-glass, removable and is closer to the driver (more useful). I have a copy of that great hand-drawn picture by David Kimble of CSX 3022 that shows it in that location. Also, there was an original at the Peterson Museum that had it there.
