I just got my 2nd gen (2010) Tacoma and the auto darkening mirror has some movement and gets out of adjustment. I haven’t got a manual yet! Any tips on tightening this? Thanks

It’s a simple torx screw, you can feel it with your finger on the base of the mirror.

if you don’t have torx a tiny flat blade can tighten it.
