8) I take it you are talking about a sport mirror. I f so then you mean the top half is loose. If you take the mirror off the door there should be two screws inside the top of the base that hold the top half on. At least thats what was wrong with the ones on my 77. :)

I had a similar problem on my 3rd gen, but mine or screwed right to the body. In my case a screw had busted off. With yours the glass of the mirror could have broken away from the mount which is why you don't see or hear any screws.
