Mirror unfolding too far

Hi all

Has anyone found a solution to a Giulia mirror unfolding too far?
When my drivers mirror unfolds it continues past the 90° point to almost 180° and it starts making a clicking noise. If you move it manually it feels like the "stop" or "detent" in the unfolded position is missing/damaged.

Trying to avoid buying a replacement if there is a known fix.

Thanks

Sounds like a plastic lug has broken off inside or something 😳.
Or if you're lucky something has come loose and could be reattached if you can get inside it.
I imagine this has started happening spontaneously, you haven't had someone clip your wing mirror while out driving, or you've come back to the parked car and found the mirror in that position?

Thanks

That's what I'm thinking also.

Time to remove it and have a closer look!!
