    Yeah. The breakable clips are on the mirrors themselves that snap over four bars on the mirror mounts. You can't easily break those bars. The new mirrors will not break when installing, only when removing.

    You're welcome!

    Yessir. The mirror mounts will be just fine.

    Enjoy!

    I removed the adjustable base, it just stuck out too far. On my passenger side, I did use some of the extra tape to build up and lift one edge of the mirror to help with the final angle

    ^^^^^ This. My dad used these on his pickups forever when I was a kid. I have used them on every car/truck (if needed) and even my motorcycles for the last 40 years. I don't trust electronics 100%, I do trust my own eyes.

    So, I hate anything that gets glued or added to the mirror. With that said I wen with the Suma Performance Mirrors.

    Install here -- https://youtu.be/DGt3_QJYz1s

    As for the backup camera/ rearview camera I went with the Pormido 3 camera set up.

    I saw your video on this a while ago and I’ve been waiting for the blue ones to come back into stock ever since. Great videos!
