BOB, THE INNER BRACE ON THE DOOR SKIN THAT BONDS TO THE OUTER MUST HAVE A SMALL GAP BETWEEN THE TWO.(THERE IS A BRACE THAT MAKES THE MIRROR AREA STRONGER) WHEN YOU TIGHTEN THE MIRROR IT PULLS THE SKIN IN SLIGHTLY,THUS CAUSING THE PANEL TO WARP SLIGHTLY..IN SOME CASES ,IN THE PART THE MIRROR MAY HAVE BEEN HIT, SLIGHTLY BENDING THE INNER,EVEN THOUGH THE OUTER IS STRAIGHT..LOOKING AY MY CAR,THERE IS A SLIGHT DISTORTION UNDER THE MIRROR,NOT VERY BAD THOUGH..MY QUESTION IS HOW BAD IS THE BUCKLE?I KNOW THAT YOU ARE VERY FUSSY(I ADMIRE THAT) SOMETIMES THE CURE IS WORSE THAN THE DISEASE. YOU CAN POSSIBLE ADD AN INNER BRACE(A SMALL PIECE OF METAL AGAINST THE INNER PIECE PUT THE NUTS OVER IT TO HOLD IT IN PLACE) SORT OF A SECONDARY PLATE INSIDE..THAT MAY HELP,DONT CRANK THE BOLTS VERY TIGHT THAT MAY PULL THE OUTER IN....HOPE THIS HELPS...GIVE A CALL WHEN YOU ARE BACK IN THIS AREA.. BEST WISHES..
