A rearview mirror assembly (10) including an exteriorly convex shell (12) has a concave interior opening rearwardly when the shell is mounted on the side of a vehicle. A power operated assembly (14) is fixed secured to the shell (12) for mounting and moving a mirror assembly (16) for pivotal movement within the open rear of the shell about first and second intersecting pivotal axes normal to one another. The power operated assembly (14) includes a molded plastics member (20) of a size to fit within the concave interior of the shell (12) so as to extend inwardly of and generally across the open rear thereof. The plastics member (20) has spaced portions (22,24) fixedly secured with spaced portions (26,28) of the concave interior of the shell so that the molded plastics member serves as a strengthening strut for the open rear of the shell. The plastics member (20) has a dual axis pivot element (54) molded integrally on the central portion thereof which extends rearwardly therefrom and integral first and second surfaces (62) for engaging and supporting one fore and aft half of first and second power operated moving mechanisms (18) respectively of the power operated assembly. The other fore and aft half of the first and second power operated moving mechanisms (18) respectively is supported by a pair of separate substantially identical casing members (60). |
