Question:
I have a 2001 Ford e-350 van. I have seen ambulances that attach a piece of metal to the back side of the mirror housing and bolt a round mirror to the metal. Can the same be done with this mirror?

Expert Reply:
The round convex mirrors on emergency vehicles are designed to be mounted in the way that you describe. The CIPA clamp-on mirror, # CM49504, is designed to clamp to a round mirror bracket on a factory mirror. I looked at some pictures of the mirrors on the 2001 Ford E-350 van and I do not believe this mirror will fit.
For your mirrors I recommend going with a basic stick on mirror like # 49302. It is inexpensive, cost-effective, and will provide you with more visibility.
