Somewhere in the archives a poster describes a process in which (iirc) one
has a machine shop tap out that hexagonal hole for a bolt, thereby
facilitating a permanent fix. I was going to do that until I stripped my
second project van. Now I have non-floppy former power mirrors, a
conversion I highly recommend. I also took the harness parts, and intend to
wire it up this fall. Like a few other things on these vans, those mirrors
are just not worth the continued aggravation.
