Default Vibrating Rear View Mirror

Let's just say this might be the silliest threat in Club Lexus history, but I was curious if anyone else experienced this:

I have the Mark Levinson stereo and have bass and treble right at the midpoint, but if I get any song up around 40+ on the volume my rear view mirror vibrates. Doesn't make any rattle noise its just visually weird as anything in the rear view mirror is shaking.

Wonder if it's normal or other?

yea its normal bro, its because the car is a coupe and roof is flimsier than a sedans roof. its completely normal and you may to re tighten the rear view every odd # of years. for example in my camaro i had a single 10' sub installed and it made the rear view mirror shake a lot , so its just a coupe thing.

I think I have topped out at 51 on a few songs, but above that it's a force!

I can't go above 30 either! Some songs that are really good quality over others makes my side view mirrors glass vibrate. My visibility becomes a blur hahaha.
