OK… going to make my final contribution to this thread, and post some (hopefully helpful) conclusions on the live thread attached to Trebor’s original guide. I fitted the new o/s mirror today, unfortunately breaking the chrome cover and slightly damaging the new mirror in the process, but otherwise OK I think...

I’ve also moved the motor from my existing o/s mirror to the n/s one – then the rain started, so had to stop without fitting it.

Thanks to everybody (especially Rob) for helpful comments, but there are a couple of pitfalls to be aware of if you attempt this job – posted in the other thread
