PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vibration resistant connector assembly for fixing a mirror support arm, which supports a mirror assembly in relation to a vehicle mount, to prevent looseness in connection due to the vibration occurring during vehicle operation. SOLUTION: A connection sleeve having an opening hollow end part is provided with one of the mirror support arm and the vehicle mount. A connector shaft is provided with one of the mirror support arm and the vehicle mount, and housed in a connection sleeve. A longitudinal wedge pocket is formed in the connector shaft, and has an inclined pocket contact surface. A camming wedge is arranged inside the wedge pocket, and has an inclined sliding surface, and pushes the inclined pocket contact surface and the connection sleeve. A working member moves the camming wedge into the wedge pocket, resisting the inclined pocket contact surface, and pushes the wedge and the connector to the contact sleeve at the same time to provide tight vibration resistant connection between the mirror support arm and the vehicle mount.
