I tried looking around but it seems like everyone suggests changing the whole assembly. My Side Mirrors are painted the color of the car. (Multi stage) Is there any way to possibly rebuild or fix this shake using the housing i already have? I don't mind buying another mirror to take the guts out.

I have the same issue with my town car after someone drove by and wacked it last week. I would assume that the fix would work for both cars.

BTW its a power mirror on both cars.

Thanks ahead guys.

i tried doing this but i couldn't get the mirror off without it breaking the tabs on the back making it nearly pointless to reuse.

I have the same problem and my solid motor mounts dont help lol. I can pop my mirrior glass in and out but it shakes bad enough to not be able to see out of it depending on rpm. I dont think any glue wil work because the tabs have to bend out a little bit to clip on and with them being glued it will just re-break where it was glued. Maybe you can just put some glue on the back of the glass housing and slap it on?

I'd use some E6000 glue on the backside of the mirror. It stays pliable which will help keep it on even with the heat expansion over a large surface like that.

ironically enough, I had my passenger mirror scrape the garage door opening and popped that glass out. I think you can get it to come out without breaking it. It just pops back in if you do.
