Fred G,
On May 30 you asked about measurements for proper placement/installation
of outside door mirrors; I don't recall seeing a detailed response.
My 78 1500 has the driver's/left-side mirror exactly 6" back from the
front of the door to the C/L of the first screw, and exactly 3" down from
the top of the door (the higher part where the window seal starts) to the
C/L of the screw. This translates to the first screw being lined up
vertically with the beginning of the seal, and the second screw being lined
up vertically 5/8" behind the tonneau-cover snap. The right-side mirror
(which was probably NOT factory-installed) is 1/4" further back and 1/4"
higher. My mirrors, BTW, are not the round bullet-types, but the 1978 black
"puffed-up rectangle" type.
