Well spotted! It's a hack :-) The doors have had a triangle cut out of them
as they were so close to being perfect it would have been a shame not to use
them, and the mirror brackets are flex tubes bent to 90 degrees. They are
attached to a couple of pins (2M screws if I rememebr correctly) which were
screwed into very small holes drilled in the side of the doors. The flex
tubes then fit nicely over those. I have some photos of this process for
putting on my web site - it isn't a cover up, honest ;-)
