[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 618878, member: 52972"] Chet, Wide angle mirror usually don't need any adjustments since they give a view of about 170-degrees. Caymen, The miirros for the Explorer mirrors like we have on the Sport Tracs mounts on the fixed part of the mirror mount exactly like it shows in the photo you posted for the 95-00 Explorer. I can assure you that I had those exact same mirrors and they do prevent the mirror from folding. Your idea of using 3M-tape may improve the adhesion of the mirrors to the textured body of the mirror, but the 3M-tape is a bit thicker than the tape they used, which will definetly increase the interferrence with the mirror folding. I was very disappointed that stick on mirrors prevented the mirros from folding but they do. The adhesion problem was just a secondary inconvenience. I would have epoxy'd them on if they did not interfer with the folding of the mirror. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
