Im having the same problem. Is there a vendor that makes these backing plates to put inside the passenger door so I can bolt down the mirrors on the outside?
Or do I have to fabricate my own backing plate?
The driver side door already had 3 holes and a backing plate attached to the inside.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanx!

These are the type mirrors I'm talking about- second section down on the left side of the page.
