Yep, I get the same thing with my '96. Do you have the large 6x9 mirrors?
I suspect that might be what causes it. I have found that when it happens,
I can sometimes make it go away by cracking the window a little bit. It
seems to happen at high speeds, but what really gets it going is a crosswind.
If it happens again and opening your window doesn't make it go away, you
might want to touch the mirror to see if the sound goes away...
