Every time I get off the freeway, I have to adjust my side mirror as the wind pushes it up, down, in...everywhere. Is there a way to tighten the thing up?

Oh the other nut. Yea that one is a real PITA
The mirror glass has to come out. To do this usually means destroying the brittle rubber glass surround when removing it. once the glass is out then the same "tighten the nut" procedure.
