Abstract
A rear view mirror mounting for installation on the driver's door of a truck or a car hauling a camper, trailer or the like comprises a rigid arm to protrude from the vehicle door, a mirror support post telescoped with the arm for holding a mirror at the required outward position, two rigid legs diverging downwardly from a pivotal connection with the outer end of the arm, and footing brackets pivoted on parallel horizontal axes to the inner arm end and the lower leg ends so that the assembly can be mounted readily in a desired viewing position on a vehicle door having any of various outside contours. Special two-part footing brackets that comprise heads slidable into locked positions on unobtrusive rail plates fixed to the door enable the mirror assembly to be attached and removed easily.
