These are manual mirrors.

I figured they where old (which they were) and bought some new ones on Amazon - they are K-Source OEM mirrors - same thing.  So what's with these mirrors?  I could get them in the right position, pull them off, and tighten the nut under them but that didn't work with the old ones and I don't think it will work with these.  It's both annoying and dangerous to have to adjust them every time I drive and again every few minutes when I drive.
