Vanity mirrors -- spring problem..
2004 X-type Sport -- 19K mi.
FYI -- If anyone else has had similar experience:
Drivers side vanity mirror door "flaps in the breeze" when using the sun visor. The mirror and door frame assypull out from the visor. Need to be careful not to damageany plastic.I found there are two tiny springs that press into the plastic housing at each door hinge post ---- the springs were forced out when the door was opened. I pressed each spring back into location and added cyanoacrylate-thick -- snapped everything back into place --- and all is well.
