Zusammenfassung:A vehicle door mirror (14) having a housing (16). The housing (16) connects to a vehicle door (10) via a stem (46). An intermediate member (22) is inserted between the housing (16) and the vehicle door (10) to effect relatively smooth abutment between the intermediate member (22) and each of the housing (16) and the vehicle door (10). The cylindrical stem (46) extends from the housing (16) through the intermediate member (22) and through a vehicle door mounting hole (36). The stem (46) includes primary engagement members (54) to engage with complementary engagement members (38) formed in the mounting hole (36) of the door (10). The engagement members (54,38) prevent removal from the mounting hole (36) when the stem (46) is in a predetermined orientation. A spring (72) is compressed between the housing (16) and the stem (46) to cause retraction of the stem (46) inward of the housing (16). Such inward movement urges the primary engagement members (54) into engagement with the complementary engagement members (38).
