Remove the mirror from the vehicle and loosen the compression nut on the bottom. Cut a piece of emory paper that can be tucked under the swiveling ball and retighten. A round piece with a slit in it works best and cannot be seen if you cut it to the right side. This has worked for a few years on my van. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Clarke" <paul.clarke@IQEA.COM> To: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 1:09 PM Subject: Re: Wing mirror question
