Default Rearview Mirror Fix

After 18 years, my rearview mirror is loose enough so that on Chicagolands finest roads the mirror will tip down and need constant adjusting. Is there anyway to tighten this ball socket or does it need a new mirror?

Jeff,

Do you know if its a ZR-1 or C4 specific mirror? Or is it standard issue GM?
Be interesting to check your parts database.

Seen a few with the Home link system with the temp in the mirror and the remote entry button for the garage done in the C4.

If I remember it was out of a Nissan. Saw a few posts about over the years over in the other forum. One guy was modding them to put the Valentine V1 hidden display inside the mirror as well which I thought was one slick mod. The parts ladi was selling the homelink brand sunvisors which had the garage controls in them as well. A few folks have installed these into C4 but of course left out the mounting details. Link below is of the mirror mods which I thought was slicker than dog snot.
