Mirror troubles

I have a 86 runner with the little black mirrors and they always are creeping in on me at high speeds. Any simple fix I can do to keep em where they should be?

Haven't looked inside one but it's a safe bet there is something you can try to tighten if you pull them off the door and look up inside the mount.

My truck only came with a drivers side mirror,which is cracking from UV exposure. I need to add those to my list for yard pickings.

Last one I checked had nothing to adjust. Most likely, you have a small fracture inside, and that's all she wrote.

Good luck finding anything in a junkyard; what do you think is the first thing to break before a truck gets junked? More importantly, the replacements are so cheap (RockAuto has them for $3.09!!!) it's barely worth it for the yard to bother with pulling them off.
