Default How to tighten loose rear view mirror

I noticed our rear view mirror is a bit loose today (as its pitch angle changed as a result of that). Not sure how it could happen (recent heat wave?)

I only see a hex nut at lower end of plastic housing, but loose part is upper part, not sure if anyone had this issue before.

There is the closest video I can find on youtube:
.

I think I shall tighten lower hex nut, but neither my 2.5mm nor 3.0mm hex tool fit into it. see the 3rd photos for that hex nut, I hate to go to dealership for this.





Thank you in advance.

OK, It is actually T20 bit not hex, that did the trick.
