I noticed my driver's side mirror vibrating the minute I drove out of the dealership. The passenger side is fine...

I have not noticed this problem. Have (so far) the stock radio antenna. I'll pay close attention tomorrow. But, as obvious as it seems to be to you folks ... I'm sure I would have noticed it too.

my mirrors seem to vibrate a tiny bit when I crank the bass on the smart cd-player...

otherwise, i haven't noticed too much other mirror vibration...

you got a replaced mirror?

hey the new mirror housing helped solve the shaking mirror at highway speeds? how did you get your dealer to replace?

mine just said it is normal? since the demos did it too... what is different about the new mirror over the original from factory?

i got my car in march 2008

Perhaps this is an issue with the electric mirrors? My mirrors are manual, and there is no shake. My whole car is as tight and shake/rattle free as anything out there...
