JMac here, and I'm going to show you how to replace the mirror hole covers on your '87 to '93 Mustang. They're very easy to replace and are typically found in one of three ways-- perfectly fine, completely missing, or like this one, where it's broken and has a washer behind the screw head to keep it onto the vehicle.
Now, it's a single Phillips head screw that holds these on. I can go ahead and remove that, and the mirror hole cover simply comes off. Now, our 5.0Resto Replacement Mirror Hole Covers come in a pair and include the attaching screws.
Slide the tab behind the door panel, line up the screw hole, and reattach it to the door. Don't over-tighten it, or you'll end up with another broken mirror hole cover. And you have a completely restored area there. For more interior restoration videos, check out latemodelrestoration.com.
