Mirror Question

[DXTAC]

My passenger side mirror tends to swing inward as I drive. I have taken the cover off and tightened it about as much as I can. Any tips/suggestions short of super glue or epoxy on how to fix it??? I did do a search but didn't come up with much.

Thanks in advance,

I had the same problem with my first 1009. I replaced the mirror.......

Take apart the clamp and clean it. Do not lube it.

so when the mirror is hard to move your good? ( almost broke mine off trying to move it LOL)

when its easy to move everytime you close your door it moves it becomes a pain after a while.

I had same issue, I removed the mirror and got some vinyl sheet wrapped that around where the mirror gets clamped on the pole part and tightened it up works great now.

I fixed my drivers from moving in toward the door by cleaning it and clamping it. I need to do the passenger now. Funny, but it moves away from the door as the door is used. Same fix though.

mine passenger side does it too... my solution... look over my shoulder.

I need the mirror for getting out of my garage as I park far to the right side to avoid dings from the kids bikes, scooters, skateboards etc.

I did tear it apart yesterday and found the problem. The lower bolt is stripped. I did tighten the S&%T outta the top one and that seems to be holding for now. You can find the mirrors for sale for between $20 and $30 dollars or so but does this include the mirror bracket that mounts to the door or just the mirror? Has anyone bought one to know???

Thanks,

i'm pretty sure LMC has the complete assemblies... i still vote shoulder turn move.
