annoying rear view mirror

[Fly_With_Sky]

my rear view mirror has come loose from the constant bumps of the crappy roads i suppose (along with lowered springs = bumpy)

it wasnt that bad but was slightly annoying as each time i went over a violent bump (such as going over where a bridge join in the road is if you get what i mean) its moves a little and i have to adjust. Now, i was trying to take it off and whilst moving around a bit it didnt want to come off.

Now my question may sound extremely dumb as taking off a mirror sounds simple, but how exactly do you take it off?? At the moment i jsut cant see how...

to stop it from moving wack a piece of metal in the ball thing that lets u move it, works for me

Is the mounting point attached to the window moving around or just the mirror itself on the arm?

i wish it was attached to the window but its attached to the roof remember...and thats where it is loose as i think a screw has gone missing as the right side of where its attached is secure but the left hand side is moving.

The only way i can see that you can get to it is if you start taking off the roof carpet so you can access it (or i suppose you could jsut tear the mirror off but i dont think il do that). I'll go have another fiddle with it now. Cheers guys.

What car?

In an R32 there is a cover over where the arm attaches to the roof, get a smallish flatblade screwdriver and pry this cover off, then you should see three screws holding the mirror to the roof, the rest is self explanatory
