Anybody know of someone who fabricates a sheet metal part that attaches to the door in order to install a passenger side rear view mirror? I rather not deal with the door hinge pin in order to install the mirror.

Thanks for the help

Mika sells a part to atach mirrors without using the pin . i have goten some pins out at home pretty easily but i have one i cant seem to budge YET .

you need to remove 2 door screws to atach em .

Nothing...it goes on top of hinge, not under...
