Default Reverse mirrors on Iron

Hey everyone,
Do you know if you can reverse the mirrors on the Iron (if the signal lights weren't in the way) or will they hit the tank?
By reverse I mean upside down..Sorry I don't know the name of it if there is one. Like the mirrors on the Forty-Eight.

Yes i did it on my 2012 all u do is unscrew the bolts, and flip, left to right, right to left, move your bars to make sure they dont hit your tank as you tighten them up, fairly simple and bout a 10min job

Great thank you sir! Don't the signals get in the way though or are yours on your forks?

My signals are still on my bars and I had to move them just a bit. Loosen the allen bolt thing next to the blinker, adjust it so it won't get in the way of the mirror and re-tighten.
