Default Mirrors keep falling off

In the past few months I have had 3 of the side mirrors fall off my blazer, they are just the stock plastic ones, is there ones that stay on better? Or should I put glue or anything in it when I put a new one on?

Theres not a whole lot you can do. All there is to it are three nuts holding it on. Ive had to replace mine 4-5 times because the "elephant ears' are so heavy the joint where they fold in wears out till they flop until the are so bad you have to replace them. See if this link works. These solved my problem. **** Optic Sport Mirrors, Side View Mirrors

My only mistake when I ordered them from another site is I ordered some with Blinkers and had to return them. The nice thing is with these "sport mirrors" is you got two joints holding the weight instead of only one.
