Default loose rear turn signal mount

This may be a dumb question. My rear mount on my turn signal is loose, I unscrew the blinker itself and I can move the mount which rattles while riding.When I put the sissy bar on it stops. I can not figure out how to tighten to the plate. It looks like I should be able to tighten it but do not want to break it,anyone else had this problem?

Thumbs up

When I switched my stock mounts to the mounts that accommodate the quick release hardware for the rack and sissy bar, my new signals stalks would always vibrate loose. They ended up pointing down after an hour ride. Easy fix was to wrap Teflon plumbers tape around the threads then tighten back-up. Haven't loosened up since. - George
