Today started out a lot colder than I wanted to work out in but I gave it a try. I worked my Honda tractor out of the garage and into the shed. That was move in the right direction. While it was cold and I had the time I unpacked and closely inspected my Taiwanese replacement outside mirrors.
They will do the job. The fasteners they send with the mirrors are very hokey ![DSCF6963.JPG DSCF6963.JPG](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/547/547477-fcb6b4e1c8daad93d96f4a438478e68b.jpg)
but I can use original hardware to fasten them. I scuff sanded the mirrors with 320 grit and can tell you that it is just a wash primer coating and they would rust solid in a year if installed without a final fish applied,
I used 320 because I have a whole box of little 3" paper Velcro pads I found in a wrecked car. I also bought these tools at a yard sale. Not just these tools but a shoe box full for a $1. I saw a Snap-On pick and a Mac screwdriver in the box with a 14mm Snap-On socket. Well worth the $1. asking price. Anyone know what they are for? ![DSCF6965.JPG DSCF6965.JPG](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/547/547479-fdacaedc54111ab06cc204d419f69fe4.jpg)
Thank you for looking. Things did not go as planned today on my M1009 project. I will explain on my next post.
