I have the same mirrors on one of my cars .mine are about 25 plus years old and I'm guessing the bases are the same ? my mirrors have a phillips screw to tighten the ball and socket . you remove the mirror from the car and flip it up side down . you will see the screw between the two mounting holes . the newer ones don't use mounting holes they mount to a bracket you screw into the cars body and then there is a set screw to hold the mirror to the bracket on the car .
the newer style I would guess still has the screw in the same place to tighten the ball and socket ? |

Mirror
Mine does not have that screw
There are two small screws to mount the mirror to the plate but no adjusting screw for the ball socket |
