I had to swap the glass in my mirror yesterday as my mirror casing broke and the used replacement I bought had scratched glass. As said there is a ball/socket with a philips head screw & nut to tighten it, accessed through the hole in the bottom of the mirror - tip if loosening the screw don't loosen much or the nut falls off and you'll have to take the glass out to replace it.

Pics of mirror housing and rear of mirror showing said screw and access hole;

Thanks Brian and Dukedesmo for your very quick replies and pictures in response to my thread.
Much appreciated.

Don't forget to keep nipping them up because mine loosen themselves!

If you have to take them apart use a dab if threadlocker when you re-install.
