    Please, would someone with a "true" Grabber, measure the location of the screw holes for the sport mirrors? e.g. distance from door edge to screw holes.

    thank you

    LOL, the problem with the PDF is the foot note says upload_2015-4-28_7-37-58.png . Great if you already have a sport mirror mounted on the drivers side.

    Dimension "A" is what I was looking for.

    I am going with 32 7/8" . ( +/- a 1/8" ) from the center of the rear hole to the back edge of the door.

    As always, I thank you for the help, I appreciate it.

    When I added them to mine I used the forward screw hole on the existing mirror for the rear screw hole on the sport mirror. I found that the factory location was about useless.
