It depends on which ones you get. They all mount with bolts into the back of them. It looks like some have one bolt and others have two.

They are usually found under Cobra or Hot Rod mirrors.

I hope this helps. I have a set in the attic if you want more info or measurements.

Do the ones you have use only one bolt?
Are they adjustable (the glass area move for adjustment)?

Thanks tons for the help

I believe the ones I have have two bolts and yes the glass moves around for adjustment. You loosen the phillips screw on the front and get the mirror to where you want it and tighten it down.

a bracket bolts to the car

then the main body slips over the top of it

then the mirror part (wich has a long threaded bar on the back) twists into the bracket

and you simply turn the mirror to tighten
