Tightening a mirror on its post or stem

I have a minor issue that I'm almost ashamed to post. But my right hand mirror/turn signal on my 2013 Stelvio vibrates so much it keeps jigglng the turn signal bulb loose. Is there a way to tighten the mirror on its stem? It vibrates quite a bit more than the left mirror. If that is not do-able, any suggestions on tightening the bulb. I tried to bend the small metal contacts twice but that doesn't seem to work very reliably.
 
Convert to the Euro system of mirrors and fairing mounted turn signals. Plenty of information on that in this section.
 
there is a tension nut under the rubber piece. you just need 2- 19mm box ends to adjust it a bit tighter. It seems odd that the bulb actually comes out though, have the dealer replace it....a 13 is under war. They do shake (na mirrors) but they should not shake that much.

Throw them away and convert to the Euro setup. It will even get rid of some vibration in the handlebars.
The tension adjustment on the top end is behind the glued in mirror.
