    Post VK mirrors dropping while driving

    hey guys ive got a VH SL/E with VK side mirrors and when im driving along the drivers side mirror drops down and faces the road due to vibration. so then i put it back where i want it but 10km down the road its dropped again. just wondering if anyone as pulled apart one of these mirrors and fixed the problem. i know i could just get a new one from the wreckers but at the age that all these mirrors are at im sure to run into this problem again soon. any help is appreciated cheers guys
