    This is normal for the mirrors, because of either the top plastic latch tab breaking when removing the mirror, or the metal wire tabs in the bottom 2 mirror locks either not locking properly, or getting loose, both of my mirrors are loose, so what I do is cut a half inch end of 1/4” gas hose, and wedge a couple of pieces in the crack of the mirror slots which stops the mirror shaking. The Magic Mirror Magnets are the permanent fix, as you can see if you search the The Magic Mirror threads here.

    Mr SpiderJoe,
    Have you checked on the Magic Mirror upgrades from some of the vendors on this site. Gets rid of the fragile clips and replaces them with the strong magnets. Makes getting to the inside of your Spyder a bunch easier. I like mine, glad I made the swap.

    I bought the magic mirror mounts in Maggie Valley and it took me 15 minutes to install them at my motel. When I removed the mirrors I had one clip mount broken that I didn't know about. They don't shine, light up, or make noise, but sure are a worthwhile upgrade.
