Funny, my experience of Landy mirrors on land rovers is pants! Maybe that's just the Army ones! I'll have a pair of brackets if you still have some rowlsey please.
Too many projects..... Not enough time!

I ordered UNF bolts but when me mirrors came from paddocks they were M6 (i think, maybe M5). definitely metric though.

trouble with land rover is they used whatever they had to get stuff built back in the day and they havent shrugged it off yet! then part suppliers have there own take on l-r parts. i thought they were m6 when i got my first set and just assumed the treads were shit - took a genuine set off a 110 and took them to a fastener wholesalers and found imperial threads fitted fine! they fit originally on door hinges held on by m8 bolts? LOL
