What size wheels can I fit?  Group: Members Posts: 4,645 Joined: 5-April 05 From: Scottsdale, AZ Member No.: 3,881 Region Association: Southwest Region   |
Every time I get off the freeway, I have to adjust my side mirror as the wind pushes it up, down, in...everywhere. Is there a way to tighten the thing up?

If you read McMark's 'how-to,' getting the glass out of the mirror is not that hard with a little patience. He nails the procedure. I've done a few, it can be done.
By the way, the early mirror is shorter, but seems wider. It also has a different arm.Both early and late mirrors use the same base, and the black plastic gasket has a slight "cant" to it. If your side mirrors look like they sag, you might have the black thing in backwards. |
