Sign In 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder convertible, mirror attaches to windshield. Have a bluetooth rearview mirror which attaches to the existing mirror but too heavy and weighs it down and causes it to tilt. Any way to tighten??? Thanks for any help. Also, same problem on 2007 Pontiac Solstice convertible.

They are designed as a ball in a socket and engineered with a predetermined amount of tension that is not designed to be adjustable at all. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Sign In LOL - the days of adjustable tention on the ball sockets of rear view mirrors ended about 40 years ago. Been there - done that got the T shirt!
