Hi Andrew
I contacted Mr. McBean twice, but I have not heard back from him. His
site has been extremely valuable to me (along with www.504.org
<http://www.504.org/> , www.garage24.net <http://www.garage24.net/> and
www.michaelsemmler.de <http://www.michaelsemmler.de/> ) and I would
certainly appreciate any advice he could offer, but I figured should not
impose on him a third time. As for the 604 mirror, it is already gone.
I will keep my eyes open for you, though.

Hi Thanos
I suggest that you have a chat to Dave McBean. He is
very knowledgeable and very easy to talk to! He
certainly won't bite off your head! If you need
contact information, I'm sure that there is some on
his site (its been a while since I looked there) or I
can find some for you.
With your 604 that you are parting out, what external
mirror (if any) does it have? I'm looking for a LH
chrome mirror with the chrome interior control. If
that is what you have and want to get rid of it, I'm
definitely interested!
Cheers (from Down Under!)
Andrew
