Default Rear View Mirror Vibration

I have a 2008 IS 250 AWD. My rear view mirror vibrates, what can I do to fix this? I did a search and couldn't find many solutions. Thanks!

Does it make a noise?

Mine vibrates a ton, but doesn't make any noise.

yeah, the TSIB swaps the mirror for the one from the IS convertible which is mounted a lot more firmly. Free fix under 4 yr/50k warranty. $900 part outside of warranty.

Yes.

It's valid through at least 2008 models...(had it done on mine) not sure if it covers newer than that or not.... but here's a guy with a 2009 saying he got it done on his:
