I saw your post earlier and thought about how much trouble they went through
too make RHD parts. Well I was wrong when it came to making your mirror bracket.
On the part that holds the mirror, they just pushed the parts out the opposite
direction and bent the tabs the other way, with the Trico stamp on the other side.
Very cool!
Now the mirror bracket assembler is both first style plus the second style bolted
together. The part that hold the mirror(according to the JS) is for " start of production to mid 28". The part that clamps to the windshield is for " mid 28 thru Nov 29".

Thanks for sharing, Dudley
