OK, I’ve done it this time.
I took the LH mirror apart (again) to fix that “floppy mirror syndrome” and tightened that nut on the hinge (knuckle) with my super human strength and BAM, right off the bolt it spun.
Funny how you always feel that bolt breaking just as it’s happening.
Does anyone out there have a broken mirror they want to sell me so I can get that special nut/bolt combination? Could be either right or left hand. Hate to buy a mirror for a stupid bolt. BTW, it’s a 2004 if anyone knows that I need a particular year for that particular bolt.
I’d also like to ask if it’s really just all the pot holes I hit that make my mirrors so floppy or is this really a comment on our inner city roads.
Thanks in advance.
Greg.
