Trailer tow mirrors

[Tink]

Does anybody know how to disassemble and rotate the mirror glass in the trailer tow mirrors 180 degrees? I want to move the blind spot mirror from the outside top to the inside bottom.



Thanks,

JVolpe,



Thanks! Not sure if it will work or if there is an anti-reversal feature built in to the mount, but this is exactly what I need.

Post it how it goes, I had often thought of that myself.
