how would you mount these to a truck bed without a toolbox? aren't the mounts made for mirrors?

just use the L shaped part of te antenna mount and bolt it to the bed or toolbox the only problems is the coax cord is to sort because the kit is meant for mirror mounts

I used self tapping sheet medle screws and drilled in to my bed using the mount peace that only connects to the antenna and they have held up perfect

Depending on how your tie downs are you can bolt them to the bed with an L shaped bracket. On older Chevy trucks this is how i do it.

I mounted them to the inside of the bed by drilling holes through the side rails them used the bolts provided. They works best if you mount them where the stake hole in the bed is located. Good luch I hope this helps.

If you really want them you always could take your bed off and mount them to the back off it with the antennas on the inside of the bed. But one of my buddies welded little tabs with holes to the lip of the bed and ran them through there with the nuts from the mounts without using the actual plates.

Yes but you take the extra metal piece off and mount the flat side to your truck bed stake hole by self tapping screws or drilling out holes . And your definetly gonna want longer coax

Go buy a "L" shaped bracket and mount them to the inside of you truck beds side rail.

I only used half of the mirror bracket and bolted it to the inside of the bedrail on my truck.

negative. They mount flush against the wall and with 4 mounting holes I felt confident they would hold the amount of stuff I had in them. I used my own screws and washers to mount and they were light enough to do by yourself with help it would be really easy

They come with the factory brackets but you will want to order some for your type of vehicle. They won't work good for a truck

I would say to consider these pieces with caution. Depending on what angle the perimeter of your side mirrors are, you may or may not be able to adjust these pieces to give a good view. For a trailer, I would imagine I would want to attach these to the very outside of my mirrors (as opposed to the top or bottom), however the angle of my truck's mirror's body would then position the extension mirrors wide and useless. I hope I explained this ok. It's difficult to describe properly.

Robert, I remove the adjustable mirror arm with the mirror attached. I store the mirrors in one of the forward compartments in my Wells Cargo enclosed trailer. I leave the mounting brackets set as the configuration is the same on both my trucks, and set them behind the seat of my 2500 Dodge, or the slide storage in the rear of the Dodge Nitro.

Hello I have used there mirrors and they are great; Make sure to screw them in tight and check the bolts every now and again...you can see vehicles coming when you position them slightly wider then the ones below...enjoy

drill holes in the bed, for the supplied mounts. different mounts could get you the results in stake pocket mounting

Yeah. The guy that answered above must not have had that option on his truck. The mirrors are both power though. I wouldn't recommend these though. I ended up switching the factory tow mirrors from my hemi over to my cummins because of the difference in quality.

No they don't. They also are not surface mount. Need to cut out mounting surface to make flush.

Yes you can use this rack with a tool box. I have this rack on my 2012 Silverado extended cab. Simply move the first crossbar mount (the one closest to the cab) back. Mine is about 24 inches from the cab. Crew cab? You might run out of bed length... Let me know if you have any questions about my set up.

There are also mirror brackets for this model that are more stable.One store that sells them on Amazon is Spy Tec

Make a custom bracket. We need more information in order to answer your question better. I have a large wood mirror that is being hung by a washer hook but it sounds like you have a different type of mirror.

Hello, There is no picture that we can provide however, there is no wrong way to mount these. Thanks and have a great day.

No wall mount,they are made so that you can take them to your work area. Really well made and if you have a lot of unidentified nuts and bolts left after a job, these are worth every penny you pay for them.

What I did was install a wooden dowel inside the handlebars and then drilled out a hole, and installed the mirrors that way. I know that does not answer the question, but I never tried to find out.

The racks sit on thesides of the bed. I found the best and probably the only way to attach them is to bolt them down. Which means drilling through the bedside making it permanent,so to say. The cross pipe fits into the the side pieces and are secure with a set screw. They fit my Dodge Dakota.
