What he said.

I needed to cut away part of the plastic which mounts on the brake hoods to allow full motion of the brake levers. Nevertheless, the mirror is real stable.

I have found the hinge joint which allows mirror adjustment tends to be the weak design link - I've replaced mine every 2 years or so due to breakage here.
