[Healeys] Fw: Wing Mirror Placement

[Mr. Bill]

Hi Tom,

I know you have a BJ7, but I wanted to throw out one more measurement 
for the 100 crowd.  If you put the convex mirrors 1" down but 16 1/4" in 
front of the doors, right at the end of the flash, they'll work great 
with the windscreen either up or down.
