2002-2003 with subwoofers please help

Hey guys,
I just put my subs back in my car after the nitro install 2 months ago and I just discovered again that I have a REALLY annoying rattle comming from the rear veiw mirroe.

I didnt see a screw or anything to tighten it. ANy ideas to make it stop rattling?

ALso, the mirror vibrates so much its impossible to see while Im bumping.
Any ways to cure this as well?

Any help would be greatly appreciated
THanks!

it is the buttons on the mirrors that is producing the rattling sound, on my max at least. to get rid of it, just turn the volume up. If i listen to it at normal volume, i can hear every single rattle my subs produces. I dont think it is even possible to get rid of eveyr single one.

No way to stop the mirror from vibrating so you can't see out of it. The only way would be to separate it from the car or put some kind of dampener around it. That is the cost for bass

yup..every single car that I've had made after 92 have had the mirrors shake as soon as the bass is turned up..just a fact of life

install new speakers w/ amp, larger subs,
raise the volume, and you won't be able to hear any rattling..maybe a ringing noise afterwards though

I have noticed the same exact thing in my 2k2.. It is a annoying high pitched noice that comes from the mirror on the higher bass notes.. If I take my hand and just put a little pressure on the mirror or the glass inside the casing of the mirror it will stop.. But I know exactly what you mean.. If you find a fix.. Let me know
