On our 03' the drivers side mirror glass itself seems "loose" its very bouncy compared to the passenger side. Any idea's on how address this? Thanks.

first thought is check the 3 bolts under the bottom, but I dont see them fixing just the glass being loose.

I think it's something we're gonna have to live with. My '94 did it, my '04 does it, and I know my friends cars do it as well.

Pop the mirror out, use glue and/or plastic shims from plastic packaging. There's foam that goes in between the mount and the mirror that compresses over time.

I used a small piece of double sided 3m tape and tucked it a little behind the mirror closest to the mirror bezel. Stopped shaking for me.
