What a dude, I think we've all done something like this before, I did it the other day fitting new indicators for someone, the aftermarket indicators have the wires coming through the stalk that you use to fasten the indicators on with, and there is a connector at the and of the wire too big for the nut to go over, so I did some snipping and soldering only to find that I'd forgotten to put the nuts on before doing the soldering. Had to redo it all

DOH!!

LOL - Did same thing when I took Claire's mirrors off at the weekend as one was stuck folded in.

On another note, do you need extenders on the VFR? I find the standard mirrors to be really good. I'll have a sit on the chippy run and see for myself.
