Please Help!! I have a1999 Acura TL. The rear view mirror is mounted on a "slide foot" that is fastened to the windshield. The actual mirror has a slide mounting bracket that slides over the piece (slide foot) fastened to the windshield. The problem is the mirror's slide mounting bracket will not stay on the slide foot. Is there a way to tighten the mounting bracket up so it will stay in place on the slide foot? Thank you

it should have a torx or phillips screw on the bottom of the mirror assembly that you tighten up once it's slid onto the metal button that's glued on the windshield. sometimes they are hidden with a removable plastic trim piece.
