hey guys, looking forward to getting the mirrors, do you know if there are any
installation instructions available for removing and reinstalling? I do own a set
of Bentley manuals - do you think its in there?
 
regards,
Patrick
 
p.s. Tom, cannot thank you enough for taking all this on and being so
great about keeping us all informed on the progress, etc.....

And I took mine to my good friend and highly skilled body man and let him do the installation.  Three minutes later I had new mirrors.  :-D
