Power mirror

This may be a dumb question however on the power telescoping mirror is the lower portion of the glass power also? If so how in the heck does it work?

Nope. You gotta push it.

You won't be adjusting them anyway. Just set it to where you want and it's good. Mine have not been adjusted since k bought the truck.

I wish mine would stay in position. They both move whenever I wash the truck no matter how careful I am when washing the mirrors. Anyone know if there is a way to increase the tension on the lower convex mirrors?

After about a year there is enough dirt collection in the mirror mounting that they quit moving when the truck is washed. After about 3 years you will worry about breaking them when you try to move them. As jdnet said, they are a wide enough field that once you set them you can leave them alone.

I don't know about increasing tension, but when I wash the truck, I don't touch the mirrors with the sponge or rag. When the truck is clean and dry, I gently clean mirrors with Invisible glass and paper towel, barely touching it. Cleans really well and mirrors stay in place.
