We consider F-theory compactifications on a mirror pair of elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds. This yields two different six-dimensional theories, each of them being nonperturbatively equivalent to some compactification of heterotic strings on a K3 surface S with certain bundle data E --> S. We find evidence for a transformation of S together with the bundle that takes one heterotic model to the other.
