The driver's side mirror on my 73 has the shakes. The body of the mirror, etc. is tight - it is the mirror glass that is shaking in the unit. Is there a way to fix this? It appears if I removed the outside gasket, the glass will come out so I could glue the back of the mirror to the base but I don't want to do anything until I know for sure. I do not want to mess it up and then have to spend over $200 for a new mirror
Thanks Bob |

The plastic retainer tends to be pretty fragile after a few decades in the sun. Be super careful with it!
