RE: dash mounted rearview mirror

[62pluckedchicken@xxxxxxxxx]

All the Cresent wenches I've looked at are way to bulky (even with the 
radio removed),, I can't seem to find an offest or open end wrench that 
big

I did order a 1-3/8 inch socket from Sears, but I didn't pay attention 
it's 12 point, instead if 6 point.. 

I sprayed the nut with BP Blaster hoping it would soften up enough to 
turn by hand, but no luck (maybe I'm just a weeny ;)
