Sculpted by Jim "Jake" Jacobs to resemble those classic mirrors of early luxury cars, the SO-CAL outside mirror features a beautiful die-cast swan neck design along with a 4-inch diameter stainless steel-backed mirror. It's easy to install if you follow these simple instructions. NOTE: The mirror's Tear drop base has been given a slight concave shape for precise location and "grip" so that you don't have to drill a second locating hole.
- STEP 1:
Begin by establishing the desired location. It's probably a good idea to have somebody hold the mirror in different positions while you sit in the driver's seat and figure which position best suits you. Apply some 2-inch masking tape to the area and mark out the location of the mounting hole.

 |
- STEP 2:
Once you have marked out the position of the mirror and marked its location, center punch the position of the hole.
|
 |
- STEP 3:
Drill a 1/8-inch pilot hole.
|
 |
- STEP 4:
Drill out the mounting hole to 5/16.
|
 |
- STEP 5:
Here's the mounting hole drilled and the masking tape removed.
|
 |
- STEP 6:
After removing the interior trim, you can bolt on the mirror using the rubber gasket supplied to protect the paint.
|
 |
- STEP 7:
Once the mirror stem is bolted up snugly, you can easily adjust the mirror head.
