Change the size of the caret to a customized dropdown menu field in contact form

I followed the code from this discussion and created the caret for my dropdown menu but the caret size is too big. How can I adjust it to be the appropriate size?

Below is my code and the results:

      <svg style="display: none">
        <symbol id="icon-caret" viewBox="0 0 10 6" >
          <path fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" d="M9.354.646a.5.5 0 00-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 00-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 00.708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 000-.708z" fill="currentColor">
          </path>
        </symbol>
      </svg>
      
      <div class="field">
        <div class="select">
          <select id="ContactForm-question" style="font-size: inherit; padding-top:0.4rem;" class="field__input select__select" name="contact[question]">
            <option selected disabled>You have question about...</option>
            <option value="Missing Item">Missing Item</option>
            <option value="Wrong Item Received">Wrong Item Received</option>
            <option value="Damaged Item">Damaged Item</option>
            <option value="Others">Others</option>
            <label for="ContactForm-question" style="visibility: hidden;" class="field__label">You have question about</label>
          </select>
          <svg class="icon-caret" aria-hidden="true" focusable="false" viewbox="0 0 10 6" height="1rem;">
      <use href="#icon-caret" />
      </svg>
        </div>
      </div>

Hello @Ookii

You can add code by following these steps

  1. Go to Online Store → Theme → Edit code.

  2. Open your theme.liquid file

  3. Paste the below code before on theme.liquid

.select .icon-caret { height: 0.6rem !important; width: 0.6rem !important; }

Thanks so much, it worked!! (I changed for the size to be 1rem)

But the caret is outside of the dropdown menu… Is there any way I can bring it back in?

would you like to share your store URL and password if any please.

How can I do that? Sorry, I’m new to the community.

and now the box seems to have two layers.
