    The driver side mirror took brush against the fence and pushed back a little. It is not designed to do this and is now a little loose.

    I've thought of glueing it, but not sure if its the best approach. How is the mirror attached anyway?

    Note: there is no issue with the mirror, just the black/grey housing...many vehicles you can fold them in.

    The TRD models have a mirrors that 'fold'. You should replace both your current stock ones with TRD ones. Easy to remove/replace.

    I bought a pair of them from Rockauto for under $100. If you can't afford that, then you can afford 2 tankfuls of gasoline. :confused:
