i just wanted to know if its common that the rear view mirror breaks that easily

 

pics?

 

dont got any pics but first it was just loose and wouldnt point up and now it jus completly hanging from the wire

 

what kinda of system are you bumpin

 

If your system broke your mirror then I would say it is time to turn it down.

 

^ Lower the volume, bass head.

 

jesus, haha I mean I always thought my system hit hard....but not that hard

 

holy shit never heard of such a thing... if your system can break your mirror, then you must be deaf by now.

 

lol thats how its got to be

 

im bumping 2 alpine type x 12's

 

im in the same situation... i dont even use my rearview anymore just let it hang kuz everytime i listen to music the rearview just starts dropping down

 

lmao type x's..that's why. my 2 12" jlw3's would never be able to do that. they drop the mirror yes, but break no way

 

the type x's r nuts i can be heard from 5 blocks down

 

what kind of system you runnin?

 

make sure they're not popped, the liquid inside them is toxic, it can eat through your dash and make you sick if it gets out

 

the mirrors been like dat for couple months now lol :P

 

My mirror has done something similar. It became loose over time and it kept shaking on rough roads then i tried fixing it and i can take it off so that it dangles by the wire, all i did was slide it back in and pushed pretty hard to make it stay. It came back eventually and my dad did something forgot what though, I think there was some nail he tightened or something

 

wowsers, I thought the stock system was pretty loud..

 

im running a 15 orion hcca

 

my rearview used to fall before then i took off the mirror and tightened the metal plate thing on the back where it hooks wit pliers.. that used to help for temporary.. until i broke the metal piece by bending it too far accidentally last week

 

i have that onstar rearview with that ball joint.

 

lol ohhhhhhh never mind then

 

Mine did the same thing, i can ride with the system down and the mirror up & it shakes but as soon as i crank it up it falls back down.

 

im jus gonna buy a new mirror lol its 90 bux at da dealership for that lil piece of s***

 

well they where covered under a recall, but im not sure if they are still replacing them for free

 

no there not, to old now, they'll blame it on age instead of a defect

 

ya good point

 

damn it

 

My mirror does the same thing from my system. It only fell completely off once though. I bought a new one and it gets loose all the time. The dealer showed me how to put it back so now whenever it's loose, I can fix it myself. It normally only happens when it's really hot outside.

 

my mirror keeps coming off the window all together, not sure if it is the heat, the bass or both that makes the mount just come off the window? third time now that i come out to a dangling mirror.... but window company keeps repairing it under warranty since this didn't start until my windshield got replaced.

 

what you bumpin??

 

same with me to when ever i bump my music my rear view would go down than ill have to put it back up than it will go back down

 

damn this is happening to everyone with a system

 

i had two twelves and mine never fell

 

lucky u lol

 

I have two 12's too. Happens to me all the time.

 

Glue it on.

 

i dunno if glue will hold that thing

 

the rear view mirror glue they sell at auto parts stores is pretty damn strong. My rear view fell off in my old car while I had the music up, but after I re glued it back on, it never came off again.Plus, if the mirror fell off like that, it was probably because the glue was already letting go and the vibrations from the bass just made it happen faster, since the bass alone would never knock the mirror off the glass like that.

 

but our rear view mirrors on the tl type s arent glued on there those auto dimming mirrors and there the slide on type lol.. theres like this clip that slides on to another clip thats stuck to the front windsheild
