Default Rear view mirror vibration.

I just installed a 5 panel mirror. It is attached to the underside of the roof. I like it but it just vibrates way to much! Any body else have this problem? Someone said put a rubber washer between the mounting bracket and roof to absorb some of the vibration. I really need a rear view mirror any ideas or should I just get another type of mirror. What are you usin?

I think they all are going to vibrate unless you can get your cart to ride like a caddilac I have the same mirror and it does vibrate a bit but I can still see whats behind me fine.

Mount it to the front struts, it eliminates a bunch of the vibrations.

Thats what I was thinking of doing. I will have to fab up some kind of a bracket to mount it. If you could post up a pic of how you have yours mounted on that would be great!

Most multi panel rear view mirrors come with the brackets to hook to top supports.

The amount of vibration you get is relevant to your suspension, the tire pressure, your speed and the road surface. They all vibrate a somewhat, I just need to see if something is there not read their license number. Mine is attached to the support, here's a pic:

i personally don'tlike those do to the vibration. but to each his own. i use a round blindspot mirror. Mine are bolted through the windsheild support. can be found at most big rig truck places(in stainless) or the cheapies like i use at advance auto or the like at about $8 with plastic backs. mounted like this mine on a club car hardly vibrates at all. but the big thing is how solidly your roof supports are attached to the cart and the roof

I had mine mounted directly to the plastic roof. I have an EZ-GO roof that I fabricated mounts to my Yamaha cart. I will look into mounting it to the roof supports.

I personally like the marine ski boat mirrors that mount to windshield supports.
Mine is 14" long and I can see beside as well as behind my cart. I have since installed several more here in park and last one cost $14.00 plus shipping.
