When in reverse, the mirrors are supposed to smoothly tilt down. Instead it makes a clickity noise on the way down. Do they just need to be oiled and how do I get to the mechanism to spray it?

Hi beeinthebuff,

The noise means the motor is over running or the gears are worn and there is nothing you can do to lubricate it.
