The relocated mirror mounts to the rotating door frame not the stationary door pillar. The door swing is limited to 90 degrees so I think the mirror would have about 30 degrees clearance from the door pillar. But that’s an estimate. YMMV. ---

I asked Derek if I could share the PPTX with you and he would prefer we work through the GEM dealership per his e-mail: ![Derek msg on Mirror Installation](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/3/3c1fd4771d22d5674719752b96d175ec5579f691.png) The title of the PPTX is GEM Door Mirror Installation dated June 5th, 2019. I’ve already sent a heads-up to my local GEM dealer, Cart Mart of San Marcos, CA and I assume they will share it with the other Cart Marts. My rivnut installation tool arrives Saturday. I don’t have grantwest’s skills. ---

You don’t need any skills you just need a nut and bolt. ---

I fell asleep watching those stupid blue hands wave around in the air wasting bandwidth. I’m splitting the cost of the tool with friends so less than $20 out of my pocket. I always like the rivnut concept and now there’s nothing holding me back. But thanks for the video anyway. ---

Lesson-learned: get the rivnut installation tool with a racheting feature. Or find a local muscleman to install the larger rivnuts. And I’ll be using the video technique in the battery compartment where accessibility is limited. Guess I gotta watch the blue hands all the way to the end and turn on the audio. 😀 Thanks for the link. I moved the two outside mirrors to the doors at driver’s eye level. She loves them. I used 2" bolts to extend the inside mirror closer to the driver. Great visibility improvement too. ---

I am going to install micro camera’s and 4" monitors for the side view, when I get time… ---

Here’s an idea. ![MVC-009F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/a/aeb57e945581a36a7fbb2234460510d2140420ba.jpeg) 1/2 x 3/8 shoulder screw. Should be able to find ss or aluminum. Found these in my bolt drawer to test fit. Screws in tightly. Od matches perfectly. ---

A little better. Only 5 min work. ![MVC-012F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/e/e1aa6052c10d4652c05cf0914135175c3a6984d6.jpeg) ![MVC-010F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/8/8a17a2a3fa8c07dd63f257106dc56b17f9db13e6.jpeg) [Previous page](https://community.electricforum.com/t/mirrors-for-a-2016/17840.md?page=1)
