Hi all,
  Is the TF rearview mirror supposed to be centered in the windshield
opening? Mine is offset 3 1/2" towards the passenger side. I added the
original repro mirror a few years ago and used the holes I found there,
there aren't any in the middle unless they're bondo'ed over.
  Also, has anyone ever lubed their wiper arm cowl bearings? I have mine out
for painting and while they don't squeak, it doesn't seem right to reinstall
them with dry bearings. They don't come apart and it looks like there's a
brass/bronze sleeve bearing visible under the crank end. 30 weight oil, or
something heavier? I suppose I could rig up a heater hose on one end and a
zerk on the other and force moly grease thru it. Overkill?
