Subject:      Okay -- is there a real fix for floppy mirrors?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Other than buying and installing power mirrors.

Yes, this subject has been done to death but I'm not getting anywhere.

I've tried the garden hose washer trick. I've tried using some high-tack gasket compound. I'm about at the stage of gumming everything together with contact cement.

Is there anything that actually works?

Someone wrote about drilling a hole and driving in a pin or something.

Not that I don't mind seeing the rear tire in the passenger side mirror. Except when looking to see if I can change lanes.
