My drivers side rearview mirror is a little shaky. Any advice on where to start looking for loose fittings is appreciated.
 
What about the mirror is shaky? Is it the glass that's shaky or the entire housing?
If it's the glass, it may have popped off one of the adjustment ball joints in the housing or the glass is delaminating from the plastic backer. Some light prying around the perimeter should reveal something.
If its the entire housing, is it at the pivot where the mirror folds in or at the base where it bolts to the door?
 
Appears to just be the mirror glass itself. The housing is stable. Whats the trick to removing it to inspect? Just pry it out with a plastic pry tool?
 
That's all I've done when working on Honda mirrors in the past. I imagine it would be similar here. If you're unsure, try going to a local wrecking yard and experiment on Toyota mirrors there.
