    rear view mirror

    not sure if this is audio AND/OR interior.

    but i have 2 12" JL w6's in my rolla. and they knock pretty hard. and it seems everytime i look into my rear view mirror. it is lower than when i lasted look. is there anyway i can tighten something in the mirror so it doesn't keep moving downward? or am i faced w/ always having to move it back up.

    Thanks!

    Dynamat the trunk so it doesn't shake the car. You could also maybe put dynamat on the ceiling and down the A pillars to help isolate vibration from the windshield. A last resort would be to buy a new mirror that doesn't fall as easily.

    just a comment.
    you could try to get one of the old style mirrors like what they had in the late 80s or early 90s, the kind that go across the top of the windsild on the inside...its like 6 or 8 mirrors, disigned after the race cars....its more...stiffer, so it would not fall easy. just a though
    :wink:

    i was just gona get a new mirror but i forgot our mirrors have two lights on them , they come in handy alot, so i dont think its worth the hasel to down grade our mirrors :cry: , i was thinking of putting a little rod connecting the mirror to the celling I know it would vibrate, but it would not tilt down, im thinking of a way to connect to the roof? any ideas, welding would be scary cause of headliner?
