>How do you tighten the outside mirror?

If it's a non-power (pre-88) mirror, remove it from the door and you'll find a nut under the mount (10mm or 13mm, I forget which). If you tighten it CAREFULLY, one of three things will happen:

1) It will hold its adjustment much better. You just saved twenty bucks. 2) It will improve for a couple of days and then worsen again. Buy a new German mirror from me for $19.95 and throw the old one out. 3) The bolt will snap when you try to tighten it. Be careful changing lanes or backing up until your new mirror arrives.
