Rearview mirror dislike

Post by QuickDrive »

I haven't gotten around to checking, but my rearview mirror is very loose, I cant even flick the "dimmer" without moving it 45 degrees off where I want it.

Does the little screw in the back tighten it up?

I know I could find this out but It's cold and dark outside, and it popped into my head as another thing to post.

The mirror on my 97 GT was like that... I never got around to it, but I was planning on popping the mirror out of its ball-and-socket joint, wrapping some thin cloth or paper or something around the ball, and popping it back in. I figured that would make it hold its position more sturdily.

My friend's old Saab 9000 had a really hard-to-push mirror. It was great.
