Mine do not have have enough friction in the ball/cup connector and rotate with little force. The drivers side will start falling down around 75 on a cold day and 60 on a hot day. The passenger side is even worse, it won't stay up over 30. Both mirrors are BRAND NEW !!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

I have the baby tornados Andy. Had the same problem. I got the screw as tight as I could then reinstalled them and placed them where I wanted. Very gently took them off with out moving them, turned them so the screw faced up and poured epoxy around the screw and socket. Hasn't moved since. I think that was in the eightys. Don't remember much of it. Lol
