Jay Fisher's repro function correctly, but bolts on from inside the door

I can't agree wholly with that statement. Perhaps at one time Mr. Fisher's mirrors did attach from inside the door but the PA469482 that I bought from him in 2002/2003 attached entirely from the exterior, exactly as shown in the template shown above. The screw that faces outward that actually grips the mirror base does not penetrate the door, its inserted in the outward indentation of the bracket before the bracket is affixed to the door or fender, and then tightened into the mirror base by virtue of an Allen-head recessed into the end of it. The template and installation instructions were provided by Mr. Fisher with the mirror itself.
