Expert Reply:
The friction of the foam tape on the wedge against the OE mirror and the foam tape on the inside of the towing mirror is what prevents the mirror from moving. When inserting the wedge, it will take a little bit of force to get the hole in the wedge to line up with the hole in the mirror. The knob secures the mirror to the wedge.
