my side mirrors and rear view mirror shake/vibrate heavily just from my exhaust at low RPM's (stock exhaust)... and if I think there's a cop behind me, I have to let off the gas and turn my stereo off to be able to tell if the car behind me is a police car or not... kinda sucks...

You could pry some black foam between the mirror and the housing.

Be gentle though, don't wanna break it.

I think it just goes to show exactly how solid out little cars are screwed together. I still have no squeaks after all these miles. I I just do not know about foam rubber... what about rubber gromits around the screws that hold the mirror in place?

I would think the foam idea would work the best.

Default Plug Wires?

It is an easy enough job to pull the mirrors. Try them all and see what works best.

Maybe it is a problem with powered mirrors. The only mirror that vibrates on my car is the rear view, and thats cause of bass.
