Doug,

"Perhaps we could arrange a swap since your version does not require the tabs which my adjusting tool does not have."
I almost suggested the same in my previous reply. My only concerns would be whether or not the mirror adjusting ends are the same size and if the tabs are the right size.
I just broke out my calipers and the maximum internal diameter of the mirror adjusting end seems to be about 2.80mm (this would be the diagonal of the square hole). The length between outer edges of the tabs is about 9.80mm, the length between inner edges is about 5.80mm and the width of each tab is about 2.00mm. Each tab is about 1.00mm thick.
Cheers!
