some one was telling me to take it to a professional to get it put on but i really don't wanna spend $35 to get it professionally install for such a stupid thing. and besides that it probably would fall of anyway.

well my rear view mirror button is metal so im hoping it will work but the glass this is what im worried about not a whole lot a glues stick real good too it

Oh trueee. Well give it a try dude, I've used it to bond some pretty crazy shit together. Rubber, plastic, metal, etc it works good, not sure bout glass though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I tried gorilla glue and it failed. Used some glue at walmart that was specifically for it and it works fine.

you do clean the old glue off with a razor blade right? Just get used to it. Or screw it to the headliner

weld it

u can't weld a mirror to glass it would break my windshield. unless your talking about jb weld and i have used that on other things and its not as good as they say it is

 

[Apollo220 10+ year member]

yeah i scrape all the excess glue off the button and the mirror reclean the windshield with glass clean let it dry for about 10 minutes then put the glue on the button attach it to the windshield and then i even tape it on there after about 3 minutes of hold it to the windshield then come back in the next day after work and put the mirror back on it tighten the screw down on it turn on my music and bam the dam thing falls off again:verymad:

its possible. build a medal bracket coming out of your roof an angle it to come down and shit....

 

[Apollo220 10+ year member]

yeah then i could weld it to the roof of the car and it would hold that way for sure but i don't have a welder so kinda ruling that one out. if i had the materials i definitely would do it

Honestly I'd have to give a big 'x2' to leaving it off. You can still watch behind you pretty darn well with your side mirrors, if youre loud as it is...you shouldnt be able to see the cop in your rear view if it were there...it'd be shaking/moving a good bit and wont be able to see him through that. At first it was a little different for me, but after a while I noticed I didnt really ever need a rear view mirror, you get by just fine without it.
