Anybody have the problem where the raer view mirror keeps dropping down out of adjustment when you play the radio loud? If so how do you stop it?

Turn the radio down?

Seriously, I don't know if you can tighten the swivel or not.

I wish there was some way to fix it. It's a major pain.

I've never had mine do that, but I have had it move to the outside a little. Not sure what causes it, I just adjust it back in.

Yea, so do I but as soon as I turn the radio up it falls all the way down. I almost was thinking about putting a drop of glue on it where I need it. I am the only one that drives it anyway.
