I know, sorry for the fast repetition rate, but it's
simply dangerious driving without a proper driver's
side mirror (although I have another two in the center
and passenger side). It keeps moving...

My van is 11 years old and this has happened for the

May I suggest that you check that your nuts are tight
(oops, no pun intented...;-) to avoid finding yourself
in the same situation. It's quite easy to do if you
remove the bottom plastic cap (the one that hides the
third bottom screw).
