I have tried a myriad of things to get my rearview (inside mirror) to decrease its vibration to no avail. Is there an aftermarket kit to roofmount a mirror that doesnt look like absolute hell?

 

What year/trim is your Accord?

good luck

 

Crap, that was dumb of me. Sorry. 02

 

First identify where vibration is occurring; either entire mirror or only the glass mirror portion and it's mount inside the mirror housing?

If entire mirror is vibrating, is the problem due to looseness of ball jts?

Is there a problem w/ engine vibration that is root of problem?

Used mirrors are readily available if the problem is damage to your mirror.

good luck

 

Oh no, its not anything like that. I just have over 2000 watts going thru 2 pretty beefy 12s (amp is a SoundQubed sq2200.1 and I'm driving 2 Rockford P3 dual 2 ohm sub's on it). Looking to get a mirror that doesn't change its viewing angle. I know its gonna shake, but moving to where I can see myself because the angle of the mirror changed that dramatically is what I'm trying to avoid whilst keeping the sub's and volume level I say that last part as to take away the food from the potential trolls

 

Easy fix; get rid of amp & woofers, or

fix the jts like you want them and add lock-tite to freeze them.

good luck

 

since getting rid of the woofers isnt an option and im not too keen on gluing the mirror in place, is there another viable option? Thats why i asked about the possibility of a roof mounted mirror. I believe that the flex of the glass is having a direct effect on the mirror making the vibration worse. I know that its a possibility that some people might be of the ilk to say that "those d@mn bassheads deserve mirrors shaking all over the place", but im just a music lover who has a penchant for bass. Im coming to you guys because I assume that Im nowhere near the first person to pose this problem. I came to this Accord from an 03 Maxima that had a roof mounted mirror and it had FAR less of an issue with vibration. I appreciate the second idea, but do you have any info on what ive proposed? i.e. roof mounted mirror for the 02 Accord

 

Some cars had a small stiff rubber tube brace between back of mirror and windshield to provide damping.

good luck

 

I have had success removing the mirror from the ball, placing a piece of electrical tape over the ball and reinstalling the mirror. The tape acts both as a shim and as a dampener.
