you'd need a solid mount to the windshield, with no adjustability. even then, i'd think it would vibrate. there's just no way around it... except turn your bass down!

every type of mirror ever made will stop vibrating, once the volume is turned down a few notches.

not being a dick, but c'mon. (thats like asking if there is a lowering kit that wont make the car too low)

Move you head side to side very fast - the mirror will stop vibrating...in theory.

It's the mount that vibrates. And you don't need a lot of bass to make it happen either.

There are a couple of things you could try. The first is to add weight to the mirror so it doesn't resonate at the same frequency. First try taping weight to the back at see if it helps. If it does, take the mirror apart and put weight inside. The other thing you could do is to add a small peice of rubber tubing between the top of the mirror and the underside of the mirror mount. Try 3/16" vaccuum tube and trim it down so you can wedge it in. Also make sure that the mirror is mounted tight.
