Jim,

For what it's worth, I had a similar issue (mirror purchased from goWesty seemed to be wrong) until I realized that the prevoius owner of my van had put the mirrors on reversed.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the mirrors supposed to be mounted vertically? I.e. taller than they are wide? My van came with them swapped (which actually gives a much better view of the road, but sacrifices adjustment range). The PO had also done the "drill something into the mirror to get it to stay in place" mod, as well as lowering the rear-view mirror. I guess my PO was a mirror-mod freak?

:-)
