After being EXTREMELY satisfied with the brake TSIB, I thought the vibration mirror TSIB would be a sure thing. I was disappointed when I drove home from the dealer and continued to see vibrations when going over bumps and with music. However, the vibrations are not as intense and it has gone down maybe 30%.

Would I recommend this TSIB to people? Yes, but wait till your regular service to get it done.

Agree fully!

For those of you who got this done, do you have ML? I wonder if ML is part of the problem.

Also, is it possible this mirror will become more susceptible to vibrations over time? I wonder if additional replacements are options? IMO, ML or not, Lexus should have designed a mirror that does excatly what every OTHER mirror does... not vibrate just because the sunroof is open!

Mine's not ML. I don't have a vibration that I've noticed (just had the car for 3 weeks - 06 350 CPO). But, I did notice how loose it is when I adjust it.

My 1st of 3 mirrors had a little bit of play to it. Same level of vibrations as a non-TSIBed mirror.

I didn't really notice any vibration until I turn up the music and the bass hits.... that was the only reason why I got the TSIB done.... and it still vibrates when the vol on the ML is turned up. It may vibrate less but it still irritates me since it's not completely gone

Lightbulb 2008 Mirror vibrates as well!!

I guess I'll be the first to report on the 2008 Mirror...

Mine does not vibrate during normal driving conditions or normal radio playing..

It does however vibrate when I am playing a song with enough Bass on my ML sound system..

I attribute that to the center dash speaker...

I usually just move the fader 1-2 clicks backwards and maybe drop the bass down 1-2 clicks.. depending on whats playing...

It helps some what, but the vibration is still there but less..

I concur with Joe. Not much vibration on a 2008 without ML during normal driving. Are you guys expecting it not to vibrate when people are bumping their systems and a speaker is directly below it?

I'm also used to having the Speakers on Fade -1.

Just got my car back from the dealer for the mirror TSIB and noticed the mirror is closer to the headliner then before. Also, I tried to reprogram the Homelink and can't get it to work. I even took out the vehicle's manual and I was doing everything OK. Has anyone else experienced this problem with the new mirror? I don't know if it is transmitting a signal to the garage door opener.

center channel speaker doesnt make it vibrate, its the bass from the subwoofer, im listening to music at 25 volume which isnt that loud and it vibrates
