hi, anyone know of ways to stop the rear view mirror from rattling?
tried reinforcing the stem but still rattles. would like to take them off and try stuffing the mirror but do not know how to take down the mirror. anyone has any experience taking them down? am driving a proton blm. cant stand the mirror vibrating already really disrupts the music when bass kicks in

have u applied deadening materials + soundproofing for the roof part? It may help a lot..

=/ its not the roof that is rattling im afraid, so why apply sound deadening materials to the roof

subwoofer rattle, and it transfer to the roof and eventually affecting your mirror.

so my best bet is to rid the roof of rattle and the mirror will follow suit? or is there a more direct way of killing the rattle of the mirror like putting sound deadening materials inside the mirror instead of the roof?

1) If the glass rattling & coz of noise, try apply silicone sealant around the glass & casing...

2) If the stand rattling & coz of noise, try apply double tape at stand plate & screw it back tightly..

take the glass out, there's a screw and tighten it....most of the time this work..but be careful when taking the glass out

i tried tugging the stem but it just wont slide out from the holder, takut i break the thing or worse something bad happen to windscreen. maybe someone could guide me on how to get it off?

you just need to take the mirror out from the holder....not the whole rear view mirror...


behind the mirror got a screw to adjust the fitness to the holder.

howie, you mean i need to take off the green screw only to get to the glass? i tried unscrewing the green screw but feels like nothing is loose so i put it back in, do i need to pry the covers open? i tried puling the red part towards the arrow but dont seem to be able to take it down.

should be push it upwards...

hmm ok will try pushing it upwards later, i thought i saw railing for it to slide down the bottom thats why i pull it down.

dude, i was saying the mirror..mean the glass..not the cover or anything else !!! take the glass off the whole casing

The green screw for mirror housing with holder/stand movement daa... like up/down/left/right.. there was no way to taken out Glass form it housing unless the glass install like side mirror glass.

you mean the whole mirror can pop out from the front?

take it out from front lor..

slowly start from 1 side, use a thin but rigid plastic plate to peel the plastic around the corner. those plastic are not that hard, peel slowly till 1 side is out then it will be easy...

walau takut, will try when i've gathered enough guts. if not will pay you a visit in your shop

welcome to my world

take out the glass = take out whole windscreen ka? hehe... rattle solved
