    Rear View Mirror Position

    What is the correct placement for the interior rear view mirror on a '70 coupe? I've got a brand new windshield and a brand new mirror, and need to put the two together.
    Thanks,

    Scott,

    FSM says 80mm below the windshield seal; centered. There is also a whole page on instructions about the adhesive pad....

    I center it and make sure the visors will clear it when moved forward. Gled

    This is what you want.
    SB17 from the factory manual. Most people put it too high.
