Can someone post pictures of their driver side mirror glass...
I was just driving yesterday and my driver side glass had a lot of vibration so I looked closer and noticed a black ring around just the driver's side. I thought this was because the previous owner had replaced the mirror glass, now I'm reading that it's a part of the the self-dimming mirror. Can anyone verify this. Also is anyone else having heavy vibration on the drivers mirror at around +60 mph. The passenger side is steady.

I can't recall that, and I will probably forget to take a pic tomorrow... but I will try to remember.
But, I just drove the BS today, NO vibration at 60mph (or any mph for that matter), so if you have a vibration, something is wrong.

I have had the exact same issue with just the driver's side glass vibrating at Interstate speeds. I've had the mirror replaced, then the motor. It has helped alot, but not completly cured the problem. More work to do in the spring. Warranty has covered it all of course.

Yes there's a black ring around the driver side mirror.
No black ring around passenger side.
Hope that helped.

My car is configured the same way. No vibration. I'd venture to say the mounting point for the mirror/pivot plate is broken causing the vibration at speed.

I went by the dealership...
I got the part number that's on order it's 2098100176 (door assembly frame). The part comes in at the end of the week. I'll give an update of the results.

I've had the "mirror" and "motor" replaced per my SA and still am experiencing a vibration at highway speeds; (the right side mirror is completely static at speed). I'll try and find the part numbers.
