ABSTRACT:
An outside rear-view mirror for a vehicle has a pedestal and a mirror housing which is swingably mounted to the pedestal. A mirror glass is bonded to a backing element which is mounted to a universal joint including a rocker and being fastened to the base of the mirror housing. A handle is adapted to be mounted within the interior of the vehicle and to be manipulated in either of two transverse directions. One end of a flexible shaft is hung into a shackle projecting from the backing element transversely to the mirror glass and having a pinion which may rotate with the shaft and engage a toothed segment of the rocker. The second end of the shaft is coupled to a gear which engages a toothed rack coupled to the handle so as to be displaceable longitudinally upon manipulation of the handle.
