Very interesting..So your saying the mirrors are OK but their bases are bad??

As I am 70 I can only handle simple normal everyday math.

So I can see something of what was said at the other post, and as the work was for a trailer behind a towing car or truck, it is not a clear how much would applies to my van.

PS someone posted that the mirrors were moved more to prevent hitting people on the streets NOT to improve aero...

None the less I am interested in some improvements if they are simple to do.

And I placed the vortex generators as close to where the instructions said to.
