What mirrors, specifically? What year of 911?

Are these the chrome flag mirrors?

Hope this helps:



As you can see, the mirror is significantly farther back and a little bit higher up on the passenger side.

Pretty sure that if you look on th inside of the doors there are small locator "divots" that are drilled depending on where the mirror is going and if it is for a RHD or LHD these identify exactly the correct location for the "flag" and "durant" mirrors.

nice shoes jack. did you mount the mirrors where you wanted them to be or in the factory locations?

[Jack Olsen]

Good point. I have fiberglass doors, and my mirrors might not be in exactly the factory locations.

(Never thought my feet would show. Judging by the reflection in the far lower left, one of them has about 17 toes. Next time I'll put on some shoes. )
