You’ll have to find a clamp large enough to fit around the arm of the bracket. A factory mirror mount doesn’t exist. They mount them above the doors on the cab, on the rear of the bunk, or on the cowl by the driver side of the windshield.
The 2 579’s I’ve owned had them on the back of the bunk. This current one with the UltraLoft bunk doesn’t work for crap but I didn’t want them on the side of the cab. -

That’s not factory, it looks like they unbolted the bracket and put that plate in. If you have a welding shop close you could show them that pic and see if they would make you something similar out of stainless.
I was just looking online and they make plates like that for Cascadias, I wonder if you could get one and maybe redrill a hole or two and make it work?ThomasTrucker21 Thanks this. -
