ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a rear view mirror assembly which facilitates installation of the components of the rear view mirror assembly on a windshield of a vehicle. The rear view mirror assembly includes a base member, a spring and a unit. The unit includes a mounting member, a second ball member, a bolt and a support arm on which the rear view mirror is rotatably mounted. The spring is mounted on the base member, and the spring has a first engagement device. The mounting member includes a first socket portion and a first aperture. The support arm has a first ball portion which is slidably mounted on the first socket portion of the mounting member, and the support arm has a second socket portion which is slidably mounted on the second ball member. The second ball member has a protrusion which is disposed in a second aperture of the support arm. The bolt has an end disposed on the second ball member, and the bolt is inserted into the first aperture of the mounting member and the second aperture of the support arm. Therefore, the unit is united by the bolt, and the protrusion of the second ball member temporarily prevents the support arm from moving on the second ball member.
