    Hi Guys,

    I got tired of my side mirrors drooping, so I got some new hardware and made a video on the fix. This is an 85 GTS US spec. Hope this helps someone else avoid RD (reflectile dysfunction). Enjoy.

    I have tightened my mirror before but did not know about the cone washer. Nice video!

    Ha! Indeed. Especially since a rear view is always nice.

    FYI, here are the part numbers from Bel-Metric. I got doubles of each and still spent less than 3 bucks. This just might qualify as the cheapest Ferrari repair with the greatest ROI.

    4 x SF6X16SS - Flat head SS (SF6X16SS) = $0.96
    4 x WSESCUP6SS - Serrated Countersunk Washer Stainless (WSESCUP6SS) = $1.44

    While you're at it, order up some copper gaskets for oil changes...
    10 x GSC22X27 - Solid copper gasket (GSC22X27) = $4.20

    Great! After I did my fix I felt like I could hang a bucket of tools on it. ;)

    Thanks for this - I ordered the parts you mentioned, but in the interim I have managed to tighten my existing screws enough to hold the mirrors - so now I have spares if I ever have future problems!
