    Default rear-view mirror vibrating

    Even with my stereo pretty quiet, my rear view mirror vibrates quite a lot.

    Any way to fix this??

    mine does too with my factory stereo, i hate to see what it does when i get my system installed, but yeah it doesn;t bother me that much but if it does bother you I've noticed that if it's attached to something from the bottom it cuts down the vivbrations dramatically.

    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”
    —Cicero, Roman statesman and lawyer

    You might want to check to make sure the mirror is all the way on it's mounting bracket. I had one a while ago that kept working it's way off the bracket and it would start to shake. Just give it a good shove and it should slide back into position...

    there's 2 parts that'll vibrate on a miror that i've found..

    one is where it's connected to the windshield, if this is the case you can just put a thin sheet a paper between your mirror and where it connects to the windshield. just Jam it on there hard and it'll stay for the most part and stop most vibrating.

    second would be the mirror it's self. where you can move it up and down for fukrs who drive with their brights on behind you.. and i don't know how to fix that one yet, cause my talon has this vibration and it sux

    I'll try the paper thing. I was thinking of somehow taking my mirror apart and stuffing it with dynamat or something but I don't wanna fuck around with it that much.
