I did the golf cart mirrors attached with magnets
Went to the hardware store and got #10 x 3/4" bolt and nut (no washer) used a little loctite.
The round magnets (I believe) give a wider surface area..... anyways these things are ON-THERE. I was going to drill another hole to add a 3rd magnet... but I don't think there is any need, you can adjust the mirrors all day long and they do not move.
Where did you get your magnets I think I like the idea of the round better than the bar Thank you

order a set.....thanks.
I have received my mirrors and magnets from Amazon and wonder how you attached them! The screws that came with the mirror are too big and the holes don’t line up. With the correct screw you could only attach the magnet to one hole. I’ll order the round magnets. Still like the idea though.

Hack75, I purchased them fro amazon..... The round ones have a wider surface area than the "bar" magnets. And they do not move.

Thanks for the idea I used the gorilla glue and they are holding the only problem is the mirrors are not out far enough to do much good when they are attached to the hood since I don’t have a front loader or a cab to attach to. I saw a reference to another post in 2013 about using a bicycle kickstand to attach the mirror to I’m going to try that next.
