So many options thanks everyone.

I got a new mirror from NAPA and from the back side construction it looks less likely to vibrate. Lots more stiffening.
And freezing water was the culprit for the old one. Once I had it removed I shook it and discovered it is at least half full of water. $35 versus $13.
The new one and the old one with water inside weigh almost the same. It is a more expensive mirror but if the vibration goes away it will be worth it.
The new mirror has a 5/16 fine thread bolt so I had to drill the mount.
