Got a real dumb question for you: the screws that hold the mirror in place are 
countersunk, as is the hole they go into; my point being, I don't think the 
stud is countersunk, so..... does it just jam into the hole that way or what?

Sorry, I like knowing about these things!

Damn English and their manuals, our car came with studs on both sides of the
mirror.  Guess they forgot to tell the production line.

<<Daniel...

That is half right, for the left side of the mirror is attached to the
body with RMP0308.  However, the right side of the mirror is attached
with "Stud-dash panel" fastener, nut, washer, and lock-washer.  This
fastener is used to fasten the right center corner of the tonneau
cover.  For some obscure reason, this minor detail was omitted from the
original parts manuals.
