Hi... I''m new to the forum. Looks nice.

The windshield mounted rear view mirro wiggles when hitting bumps in the road and it eventually falls down. The part actually attached to the windshield is firmly attached... it''s just extension arm that breaks free. Then the mirror just hangs from the wire connected to it. I see it getting loose and reattach it, but my wife is shall we say less skilled. She''ll let it dangle all day long. Anyways, when I reattach it, it more or less clicks into place, but it''s not that firm. Is there a way to tighten it down so it doesn''t fall off anymore? I''ve looked it over several times, but nothing seems to work. And, of course, the manual is useless when it comes to this type of thing.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry, but you are in review mirror jail. Need to know the number of wires and the color of the electrical connector and I might be able to find one for you.
