Sorry if this has been covered. What wheels are you running? Any pictures?

Hi Lanciahf I used to own a Lancia HF Lusso 1973 1600 twin cam V4

Hi Drummond,

I really like your left side mirror, it is just beautiful. Where did you bought it?

And maybe you can help me on that one...Do we need to remove the left door inner cardboard in order to replace the side mirror?

I thank you very much in advance.

HI Lanciahf

Here are the photos. Volumex wheels from AR

Hi Quebecfiatspider

Here is the info:

You have to take off the door card to install if you want to use the signal. If no signal you do not have to remove the door card

Also the mirror does not fit the original screw holes in the door. you need some SS self taper screws

I purchased my side mirrors with signal arrows from a different vendor. They are similar to the ones in the above link. I also purchased a third brake light I installed on the top of my windscreen from this vendor. The link is below

What a Beautiful job !
But please get the car off those wretched cinder blocks and onto ramps , or jack stands , or anything safe . Cinder blocks are apt to crumble ,if they do the car will be damaged which would be a pity , even worse you might just be under the car when it happens . This could be a tragedy !
Cheers

It's been an amazing journey that I've been following pretty closely. Your work is fantastic.

You should be really proud - and it's great that you can enjoy it now.
