I've got a NASCO vanity mirror that mounts inside the glovebox. It's a hinged set up that so the mirror can fold away.
My question is: Was the mirror mounted to the top of the glovebox liner or the bottom. Or was it mounted on the glovebox lid?
Can anyone help?

Definitely the top of the glovebox liner, I can get you the exact measurements of where it is mounted if you want.
The ones fitted to HQs all had a piece of foam in the circular recess which I think they deleted in later models.
Before you fit it, nip up the hinge with a small screwdriver so that the mirror stays folded away and doesn't drop down on its own.
cheers Rhys

Cheers, Rhys, It's not going into a HQ, so I won't need exact measurements, but thanks for the your offer. And the quick reply.
Thanks again.

Those mirrors where also the same used for valiants and possibly ford in that period.

Rhys, would it be possible for those measurements and/or a pic of one installed. I just pick up a mirror today and what to get it right. Cheers

Nearly a year late Rimzimmer but I took some photos while I had the glovebox lid off if you still need them. The distance of the mirror's RH screw hole to the insert's upper central screw hole is 18mm, see photos below. I don't know if all HQ inserts had the mirror holes pre-punched but if not these photos will help. Edited by user Saturday, 29 June 2013 8:12:10 PM(UTC)
