Any auto store should stock a special glue. It comes in a small amount just enough for one mirror.

Be warned, make sure your stick it in the right place, because in won't come off in a hurry.

Cheers

Adrian.

As Au2 said, auto shops sell the specific glue, to make it easier remove the small metal plate from the mirror(held by grub screw) this way you dont have to hold the mirror until it sets.

as above. I did mine not long ago. Trace around the little metal piece so you can line it up quickly, because once its on- its on

I just take my car to Windscreens Obrien and they fitted it back on with out any cost.. And he fit it exactly in the middle of the black sticker thing with out any pencil or ruler.. I have been back there 3 times now and they are always happy to help..

Worth a try..

Cheers,
Nik

My front window vibrates due to excessive noise and my mirror came off a few times

I purchased the special glue from Autobarn but found if you buy the cheap stuff it will fall off again very soon - go for the more expensive ones as you pay for what you get
