Default Re: F1 mirrors

Original mirrors did not mount like the repro one you bought. Originals used a bracket that sandwiched the hinge and provided the mount for the mirror. The repro you bought looks better IMHO but yes grinding the hinge is what people have done.

If you look at the panel trucks in my albums you can see the mirror mounts on a couple of my trucks.
