Help me find a part... Mirror mounting stud for an 2000 model year E450
Normally I wouldn't ask such a specific question here... but I'm really racking my brain trying to find this tiny little part. The passenger side mirror of my RV broke the studs that hold the mirror on. They come premounted in replacement mirrors from Ford, but apparently they don't sell just the stud. The local junk yard doesn't have any down here. I need three of them to properly mount the mirror.

You can't just either get a bolt or cut some threaded rod to replace the broken part?

Do you have a pic? I have a few studs from the mirror on my Pontiac but they're probably completely different. If it's the same or close enough you can have it.

McMaster Carr sells lots of different types of studs. You'll have to know the thread pitch, diameter, etc.

you wouldnt happen to be talking about the plastic studs that extend from the back of the mirror glass backing plate are you?

I'll have to pull a stud from the driver's side to get a picture of it.
Shawn... It's two different thread diameters, and I'm not talking about on opposite sides. There are two different thread diameters on the same side. It's odd. Getting one made would be an absolute last resort. It's a tiny little part, I'd probably drill it out and put a heli-coil in there before I went through all that trouble.
