Default C5 Rear View Mirror

Have any of you noticed that the rear view mirror vibrates at certain times? Is there an easy fix for this?

There is an adjustment that you need to tighten... It is located where the mirror meets the glass... I think it requires a torx T20...

I had found that issue on my 97 and couldn't adjust it any tighter. It was one of the motivating reasons that I installed the electrochromic 2001 mirror which is much tighter.

Mine vibrates during idle sometimes. Never tried to adjust it. Thanks for the post and will follow the response. Mine almost sounds like something is loose inside the mirror.

Is the switch to the 2001 chromo mirror a costly/difficult job?
