I'm not really sure whether or not this belong in this thread but I have a problem with my headlights. Awhile back the low beams stopped working and I found a short in the plug connected to the light switch. I swapped out the plug, rewired everything and changed the fuse but they still won't work. The high beams work fine so I'm really not sure what else I could be missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bolt mirrors to fenders or A-pillar, half doors, get one that you can attach with a bolt through the hinge, or whatever creative answer you can come up with. You could probably find one to clamp on the A-pillar. Most states that I've looked at only require an interior rearview and a driver-side exterior.
