Be aware that there are two mounting methods applicable with the
original mirrors.
Starting out, the mirrors were mounted using screws for hardware. Later
(my 78 for instance) used studs (secured from inside the body) with the
mirror being secured with chrome acorn nuts. In that case, Ramco needs
to be informed and they can supply a bracket that is counterbored on the
face of the mirror bracket for the acorn nuts. They also fill weld a
void on the back side of each corner of the bracket, grind it flat, and
re-bore the stud holes.

P. S. Ramco also has an 800 number: 321-4819.
