Loose mirrors on 91 Firebrid convertable

I have a 91 Convertible Firebird and my drivers side mirror housing is loose. also, my windows dont roll down (thats another problem though). I took off the inner door panel to try to tighten the bolts, and I cant get to 'em. Is there an easy way to do this? Its anooying as hell expecially when I have my top up because visibilty is total crap in those things. Any help is appreciated!

You'll need a 10mm deepwell socket & a 10" long (minimum, unless you've got really small hands) extention, wobble attachment optional
Bolt 1 & 2...

Ah, I see, well the problem then for me is, the window is in the way, so I guess I will have to get that fixed first. Thanks for the pics tho, very clear!

Correct, I think you can actually get to the forward nut or screw BUt the rear one is blocked by the window when its up.
