Screw 'em in more? Twist the door mirror assembly towards the rear of the car, there are two screws. Tighten them. Where the rear-view mirror attaches to the windshield, there is a screw. Tighten it.

Well, unless you're willing to make the mirrors solid (unmovable), they WILL shake at their natural harmonic frequency. All objects do this.
