take the mirror off and apart on the bottom.
get that hemisphere washer out. ( somethimes they're stuck in there )
coat Both Sides of it nicely with Permatex High Tack gasket sealer.
Reassemble.
tighten the 10mm nut as tightly as you dare. ( eventually it'll put the
stud right out of the mirror if it's old your you tighten too much. )

'usually' this works.
it'll move slightly when you need it too, but not when you don't want it
to.
Even new ones need this treatment in my experience.
