if you want it to be easier to work with, the whole mirror has to come off; it's very easy to get off, though.
*** edit: i was actually in the middle of doing this when i posted, and when i put the mirror back on, i could still hear the rattle, but it's barely noticable now.

Thanks for posting this up! It's interesting that this problem is so common. I tried to get Ford to fix this under warranty last month, and when my dealer contacted Ford for authorization, they said they never heard of the problem and the mirror must have been hit in a collision, so they wouldn't cover it. I guess I'll knock this out this weekend

I noticed that my mirror on my 2008 Mustang was starting to rattle and it was also driving me crazy. I read the steps to try and fix it myself but I think I will take it to the dealership first. If they can't fix it I guess I'll have to do it myself with these steps. Thanks

I took my car into the dealership and to see if they could get it fixed and they told me that because there was a tiny scratch on the mirror, probably from the car wash they couldn't get it approved with ford because it was an impact scratch. So now I guess i'll have to try fixing it myself with the steps someone posted on here. Thanks for the tips.

Well I just tried it today because I have the rattle and it is driving me nuts...I am looking at 7 years bad luck...ended up cracking the mirror and now I have to find a replacement one.
Forget replacement one...ordered Agent 47 mirrors...there must have been a reason for it, so I took the opportunity
