Midget Rear View Mirror - What Will Work?

[AngliaGT]

Had some ugly American car mirrors on it,
& now I want to replace them with something
that looks & works better.
Any ideas?

The screws are 5-1/8" center to center.

The gasket/adapter is 6 - 1/4" long

The two center holes are 2-1/4" center to center

A sheet metal screw of the correct size can be screwed in so it is tight. Take an angle grinder with a cutting blade and carefully cut off the top of the screw and then use the bottom of the blade to grind down the stud. The heat from the grinding down will get it Red to White hot and it will actually weld the screw in place. Grind flush, primer and paint and you can install anything you want on there. My simple trick for filling unwanted holes without needing to get the welder out.
