Hi guys,

my nos talbot mirror arrived today, I'm one happy camper! Cheesy  Now, I was looking at the installation instructions and have a few practical questions for the guys that already installed one of these babies.

You have to drill two different holes, can someone provide me the measurements of the holes in cm's?

Do you need to remove the door panels for installing the "J bar"? (the bar where you bolt on one bolt with an angle on top)

Is every talbot mirror with one bolt or are there models with 2?

Yeah, I think there are different installation methods.  I will post pictures of my model.  I've read the instruction model and I think the size of the holes and the space between them is very important with this model.  the installation documents is printed in 1966...  So I think it is a 1966 model...  Huh

this is exactly the same mirror as mine.  I will have a look at it this weekend for installing this beauty... Let's hope everything turns out well.

Depending on where you choose to place the mirror you may have to remove the door pannel, but when I installed the 333 I didn't have to, but I did it just to make sure the location i picked looked ok from the inside too....

JHU, do you have a picture of your car so I can see where that you put the mirror...  It would be a great help.

thx

It hits the mirror... but the window will open almost all the way before doing so.  Roll Eyes
