rear view mirror prob
 
I have a bass system in my car, well it moves my rear view mirror all over
the place. I was wondering is there something i can put around the base or
ball of the mirror, like a compound or grease, to keep it more stiff? My 96
accord didnt have this problem, nowi have a 99 accord.

I think grease would make it worse. Easy to try, couldn't hurt: a few wraps
of string around the ball where it fits the socket, pulled tight as possible
and tied. You can always snip it off it it doesn't do the job and make it
prettier if it does :-)
