Inside mirror day/night don't line up?

I know, get a life, but when I flip the inside mirror from "day" to "night", it's not lined up properly; I have to tweak the adjustment so that I can see out the gunslit of a back window. Then when I flip back to "day", I have to tweak it again.

Anybody else see this?

i think thats how its supposed to work. when someone's behind you and their lights are shining in your eyes you switch the mirror over to night which adjusts the position of the mirror but you can still see the lights due to a reflection inside the mirror, its just not as bright.

Yes -- I got that part. But the angle change from flipping the **** doesn't match the angle change built into the optics of the mirror.
