Abstract

See full text

A method of testing a seal of a rearview mirror assembly includes providing a mounting arm for a vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly. The mounting arm includes an attachment end configured to be mounted at an exterior portion of a vehicle and providing a mounting element that is at least partially transparent. The attachment end is mounted to the mounting element with sealant disposed between the mounting arm and the mounting element to establish a test seal between the mounting arm and the mounting element. A shim is disposed between the mounting arm and the mounting element. A thickness of the shim is based on a threshold interference level of the test seal. Based on a determination of a gap between the mounting arm and the mounting element, determining that an interference between the mounting arm and the sealant is less than the threshold interference level of the test seal.
