Another mirror problem now!
While backing out of the garage I caught that new mirror on something
and it folded forward (yes, it's supposed to be able to bend back). Now it's stiff enough to remain where I want it most of the time, but the detent feature doesn't work. What did folding it forward actually do internally, and is there any way to fix it? Perce |

Just about nobody is going to be able to tell by Usenet exactly how you screwed up your new mirror. Look at the bright side: it no longer matters whether the vendor sold what they were advertising, since you've now broken it in a way that no sane warranty will cover. So now you get to buy a new mirror, hopefully being more careful to make sure it has the features you want, without worrying about whether you should get your money back out of the old one. |

I thought someone might have had one of these mirrors apart and would be familiar with the detent mechanism. Maybe 'll just attack the old one and see what I can find. Perce |
