Installed new door mirrors.
These are a Chinese copy of the Vitalone California, right down to the "made in Italy" on the base casting.
Top of door mounting so maximum droop is at the correct level. I think the size and style of these fit the X perfectly.
The mirrors themselves look to be good quality with a cast aluminum base. The mounting hardware though was not even close to adequate. Mounting screws look to be wood screws, and the gasket was 5mm too short. Complained about the gasket and got a $10 refund off of the $41 purchase price.
Cut a new gasket out of 2mm rubber sheet. Drilled out the bases for 4mm bolts. Used a "B" drill bit and 4mm rivnuts.

Went for a drive, first of the year... And forgot to check out the view from the mirrors! Isn't that the first rule of Italian driving?
