Only drill the hole very slightly larger than the shaft you find to stick in there - i.e. get the shaft before you drill the hole. Last resort is to just search for the angle arm replacement on the parts board. But folks usually like to sell mirrors as a complete assembly. A WTB ad for just that part might turn up a spare someone has lying around.

Something to keep in mind is that he can't post a WTB ad unless he is a Premium member.....(name in Blue)
