I had the same problem dealing with vibration in the original equipment mirrors. I think it was the long, thin arm because the Studebaker mirrors (very similar) and Chevy did the same thing. Chevy even had a better mount (IMHO) and that arm still vibrated. So I am going with the California-type mirrors. They worked on my Studebaker and are much better when towing. Besides, one of the previous owners installed them and the holes are already pre-drilled in the door.
