That's how it was for me. The procedure is discussed on here somewhere. But for me it involved removing a cover on the bottom of the mirror assembly. Not knowing exactly where the snaps were, I snapped one off (leading to an extra side repair for that), so hopefully you can avoid that. After that was done, it was a simple matter of tightening the Torx screws that were now easily accessible. I have not revisited that issue in 5 years now. Completely solved.
