depends on how it wiggles.. the glass section is held on to the plastic mirror retainer via adhesive strips.. these could be letting go, if they do.. well there goes your mirror.. it happened to one of mine.

if this is the problem you should be able to pry the mirror off the plastic backing plate (carefully) then clean the backing plate and cut a bunch of 3m double sided foam tape or similar and use it to put the mirror back on..

If the glass is secure to the plastic it's stuck to, there are 3 Phillips head screw that hold the plastic "movable" assembly into the metal outer assembly. You can access the screws by adjusting the mirror. Make sure those are tight.

HTH!
