Mirrors - mirrors, mirrors

Had my RL one week .... picky stuff here ..... but does anyone have a problem with the rear view mirror not staying in place? Seems I am constantly checking and adjusting it everytime I get in the Sky.

... and why is the vanity mirror on the drivers side visor? ... and not on the passengers?

I have to adust the mirror almost everytime I get in the sky. I think I just sit in it differently each time. In the morning when I am just waking up I try to sit up a much as possible and in the evening after work I slouch in the seat so I adjust it a lot

My car only has a driver's mirror because I'm the only one that may need to do an appearance check after several hours. I don't allow ugly or unkempt people in the car, so anyone still in the passenger seat can rest assured that they look good.

Is your seat in the same position each time you drive or do you adjust it?

SKY drivers are a vain bunch, we are. Not so for most of our passengers.

You're slipping, Bogie! I was expecting an explanation about gradual compression of soft tissues in the spinal column during the day making a person slightly shorter after being up and active throughout the day. You feeling OK?

Bogie .... seat(s) are in the same position since day 1. Just thot it strange that no vanity mirror on the passenger side. Never seen it before. But I'll take some suggestions from here and rectify that!!! Thanks

Mirror should not move. Make sure the dimmer switch is full turned. Tap the mirror, it should not move (vibrate...maybe), but not move.

Proper mirror placement/coverage is critical on these cars, especially with top up. Everyone has their preferences, but whatever you do, it needs to be rock solid consistent. Overlap between side and rear is very important.

If the rear view mirror is moving around, either something is loose or it's defective.
