Hi,

The Glass in the wing mirror casing shakes when traveling above 60mph making it difficult to see how far cars behind are when over taking.

Is there any way of removing glass and tighting up. ????

Thanks for any help

Its often the mounts, slip the glass off and make sure that its fitted correctly. If it is the mounts then a piece of the very thin soft foam can take away the shake placed between the glass and motor ass

Push the glass in at the bottom and you will see a wire clip along the top, un hook the spring and the glass is held by 2 pegs in the bottom
