Possibly, though it'd be sticking a flat disc on a compound-curved surface. Not much contact area for something that has to resist hurricane force winds.
Also, the holes are on the bottom of the mirror housing. Can't see 'em when the mirror's deployed in its normal position, so it didn't bother me to drill there.

I know you mentioned it in the other thread but why are you only keeping it for winter?

Couple of reasons:
1) Mostly because I got a pretty good deal on the car, and should be able to sell next year and recover all my costs (inspections, repairs, gas, registration & insurance) and maybe even make a few bucks on top.
2) I think I've discovered it's fun looking for winter beaters. I'll hunt down something different next year. Maybe even make it an annual tradition.
