I don't buy this, as it only allows adjustment thru an angle that will 
have little effect on the position with respect to the driver. Plus 
there's not much adjustment available, the adjustment is only in 
one direction, and any movement in that direction will only be 
releasing the mirror from its mount.

Your mirror came with a screw in it. It had a thin serrated metal 
head with a cylindrical black rubber bumper on it. When backed 
out slightly it would bear against the windshield. Sorry to hear that 
someone lost it.  8-(
