The new pipes slip onto the stock front pipes and clamp down. This is so I can remove new pipe and reinstall stock center at any time. The "bead" flange is undamaged. We just put a very small tack weld to keep it from moving/turning over time. Can be ground down if I want to go back to stock.

The stock pipes at just over 2 inch but the flanges are seriously reduce into a bead for the center section to slide over and clamp down.

This is right before I soldered and insulated. Notice how everything lays back in the factory direction and the integrity of the factory wires are not compromised.

Here is the door side of the mirror harness connector. Pin #12 ground and #13 power as before. Notice how I cut the insulation only leaving the conductors in tact and then using a small pick, make a hole to insert the new wires through and then rapped them, soldered them and re-insulated.

Here are the connectors I used. They are AMP connectors but any two conductor plugs will work. These were about $8.00 a set.

Here is a picture of the whole card with new projector and wiring. Hot melt glued to keep the wires from getting smashed when I re-installed the card.

The outer layer (bottom of card) hole. My logo projectors came with a small hole saw and it worked great. Drill from this side through both layers of card. The see next pic on how I enlarged the inner hole for easier accessibility

A view of the inner door card and how I cut the inner layer of plastic with a Dremel to give me room to tighten the nut down then angle and hot melt glue.
