i'm not sure but i think the blue of your mirror is a protective film that you can remove by peeling it off the one i ordered is the same way i'll check it out myself.

I just checked the Amazon link I have in the description and sure enough it states that they are tinted for anti-glare. So there is no film on them. It's one of the reasons I picked those mirrors...Thanks for the comment!

Right on! I think you are going to like them. So much better then the OEM mirrors. Make sure you get a #3 Philips and use a impact driver. I can't imagine fighting with it or putting a torch or heat to get the bar end weights off...Good luck and let me know how you made out!

Nice! I've owned a bunch of 'stangs as well... I had a '96 laser red cobra and a '98 laser red cobra vert as well as some fox bodys. The "boat" hits different, tho. I wasn't a MOPAR guy before, but I really like This 5.7 Challenger Shaker. At almost 400HP NA and 400 Ft/lb of torque, it scoots. I really still like the mirrors even almost 2 years later.

I ordered some cheap $20 kenimoto mirrors and immediately returned them lol... I just picked up a set of these; hoping they feel better than the kenimotos.. Side note, I used an impact driver like you, but I used a #3 JIS bit...fit perfect...Japanese industrial standard bits for Japanese bikes :)
@icemanfiveoh Жыл бұрын
Lol. Mine have still held up. And I like the blue tint. I guess if I had a JIS bit I would have used it. The #3 Phillips worked fine. You can’t just go down to Menards and grab a JIS…lol and it’s not like I’ll ever use that screw again. I prefer allen screws anyways… Phillips are a pita. Thanks for the comment and I hope you like them as much as I do.

@icemanfiveoh2 жыл бұрын
Glad I could help. I absolutely love these mirrors. I'm going to do a new video today installing these same mirrors on my new pro taper bars. I would def buy them again. if you ever consider putting these on aftermarket bars don't lose the little bits of hardware that come with them. Impossible to find afterwards. I came up with 2 solutions because I did lose one of the wedge pieces. Thanks for the comment and make sure you tune in to the video once I drop it!

@icemanfiveoh3 жыл бұрын
I went back and looked at the mirrors on amazon and in the description it said m6/m8. So, i know that the bigger screws in the kit were not the right ones because they didnt fit the handlebars. So, M6 SHOULD be the correct screw size. I hope this helps.

for the mirror on the throttle side when you said "you got the spacer in here" - did that come with the kit? I bought the same mirrors to be able to follow along with your video. thanks!
@icemanfiveoh3 жыл бұрын
The mirrors have the spacer included. on the clutch side you wont use it, but you will on the throttle side. these were meant to be expanding mirror mounts that grip the inside of the handlebar tube, so just remove that barrel piece and use the smaller screw. Don't forget to tighten the screw on the inside so the swivel is nice and tight.

I am having the same problem with the hex bolts on the headlight assembly. Would the same impact drill work on those? Are the handle bar hex bolts also 5mm because I want to change those as well. Thanks for all these videos they have been helping me a lot.
@icemanfiveoh2 жыл бұрын
You can try the impact but the real issue is that the hex isn’t really deep enough to get a good fit. If you can get them out I would replace them. Look up an exploded parts diagram to get the actual size bolt/screw. The handlebar bolts take a 6mm hex to get them loose. Maybe I’ll find an appropriate set of stainless steel bolts so we can change the headlight hex bolts. I’ll let you know what I come up with.
@wallacedaniels306 Жыл бұрын
Get a pair of T handle hex keys or socket hex bits (metric) because if you don’t set the tool in the screw head properly they will strip out very easily. So you got to get the rt tools for the job my friend then it’s to easy, good luck

Looking great! What will the loctite do tho?
@icemanfiveoh3 жыл бұрын
the locktite keeps the fasteners from vibrating loose. it's a blue so it's not permanent. the red is really hard to get off and is supposedly permanent. both have their own purposes. Locktite is used on cars or any mechanical component or screw to keep things tight. Hope this answers your question. thanks for the comment.
