Can you adjust the passenger side rear view mirror not to tilt down when in reverse? its hard to see the adjacent object.

i believe if you mvoe the mirror switch to the right and reverse it'll tilt down. or maybe if you move the mirror switch to the left and reverse it'll tilt down.

not to thread jack but does anyone else's passenger mirror move randomly? I will set it one day and after a few days it wanders away from what I had it set at. I thought i read a thread about this somewhere but I can't find it anymore.

Also it's in the instruction manual in you glove box
In the left position on left hand drive cars it dips down to see the curb. In the right mirror position it stays up in reverse.
