Do you have a Moss catalog? They have a pretty good diagram of the <br>
mirror assembly (p. 112 on the latest catalog). It's comprised of the <br>
mirror, a nut plate, a couple screws and a bracket (the diagram shows <br>
the bracket under the nut plate, but I think it's a fair assumption the <br>
nut plate goes under the bracket--that's how i assembled mine). On the <br>
bracket, the two screws go through the upper part into the nut plate, <br>
and the bottom of the bracket has a hole for the single, chrome-plated <br>
screw and flat washer located dead center of the dash.<br>
<br>
I'd send a link, but Moss doesn't have the diagrams online. I'll get <br>
some photos today if you need them, but the diagram is pretty <br>
self-explanatory and, as you mention, I don't think you can see much <br>
with the heater in the way.<br>
