Well there goes your credibility on mirror vibrating judgment. Noting was done on Monday but you where saying on Tuesday it was vibrating less than before? Can you say placebo effect.

Please forgive my ignorance: How do you determine if your VIN is eligible?
I have a '06 350 that was built in 3-06. The VIN has an "X" in it
(JTHBE262X.............). Any advice is appreciated..
thanks

im had trouble deciphering as well, but i would think since it affects 06 and 07 models, and prouduction methods were changed in 07, that all 06's would have the pre-change mirror.

It worked so LOL I know for sure it helped a lot cause usually just driving on the highway it vibrates.

Well, I had mine done yesterday, and I must say that I don't really see too much of a difference. It still vibrates a lot with the front windows down and the sunroof open (due to the wind turbulence). But, I think that there IS less vibration with the windows up

Also, I can tell you that cost of the mirror is $650

I guess you can take that information for what it's worth and use your own judgement

^ The audio fix is for buzzing sounds when using the aux in jack.

They fixed everything yesterday. Total would have been almost $900 if it wasn't covered under warranty!

The mirror is MUCH better now!! Even with the sunroof open driving at 75mph. it's much tighter and much much more stable than it used to be. A+ on this tsib

i was so happy to first hear this; but my vin doesn't apply its JTHBE2627...... but my rear mirror vibrates like crazy with base so Im assuming others is350 rear mirrors are worse since they claim vins after JTHBE2625 already have the new rear mirrors. cough cough bs.
