    Abstract: A process for providing an interior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle includes providing a mirror reflective element and forming a mirror backplate and a mounting base, with the mounting base formed separate from the mirror backplate. The mounting base is configured for attachment at an interior portion of a vehicle and includes a ball member. A socket element is formed separate from the mirror backplate and separate from the mounting base, and the socket element includes a socket member. The ball member of the mounting base is inserted into the socket member of the socket element to form a ball and socket joint whereby the mounting base pivotally attaches to the socket element. With the mirror backplate attached at the mirror reflective element, the socket element, with the mounting base pivotally attached thereto, is attached to the mirror backplate.

    Abstract: An exterior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a mounting portion mountable at a side of a vehicle, a mirror head portion adjustably mounted at the mounting portion, and a reflective element at the mirror head portion. An actuator is operable to impart pivotal movement of the mirror head portion relative to the mounting portion and about a generally vertical pivot axis to pivotally adjust the mirror head portion relative to the side of the vehicle at which the mounting portion is mounted. The actuator comprises at least two motors and the motors are operable in tandem to cooperatively rotatably drive a common gear of a gear system to pivot the mirror head portion relative to the mounting portion. Responsive to a determination of the rotational movement being below a threshold speed, a shutoff circuit deactivates at least one of the motors irrespective of current draw by the motor.
