The Car Mirror turns Dark. Cadillac Deville, Seville, DTS, Buick Lucerne, Lesabre, Park Avenue.
Many Cadillac models such as Deville, Seville, and DTS, as well as Buick models like Lucerne, Lesabre, Park Avenue, and Rainier, were equipped with self-dimming, or auto-dimming, mirrors as an option for the side view mirrors. These types of mirrors were more common than regular mirrors for these vehicles. However, many of these mirrors have failed or turned DARK over time. It's important to note that the self-dimming feature is usually only available on the driver's side.
Given the quality of these vehicles, many people are still driving them, and it's estimated that about 40% of these vehicles are still on the road, needing replacement glass for their self-dimming mirrors. We recommend using a self-dimming fit-over mirror as a replacement. When you replace the existing glass with this fit-over mirror, approximately 60% of the dimming feature will still function, thanks to the quality of the First Service chromium glass used, an American-made product.
It's crucial to be cautious when purchasing replacement mirrors, as mirrors from Asia may produce blinding effects. As someone with 35 years of experience dealing with these mirrors, I have thoroughly researched this topic. You can see this in the video especially because of one thing. "YOUR HEATING ELEMENT STILL WORKS" And there's a special way. To glue our mirror over the existing failed mirror for that heating element to function properly, watch the video.

Hi there 😊 I was watching your video the other day because my pos kia rubber around my windshield has been flapping in the breeze. I went to Al's auto and was told to use permatex windshield and glass replacement. I bought it but im worried if this is the right stuff to use, because the man working there didnt seem to understand what i was doing and had to look it up. That made me nervous lol Im worried to put the wrong thing on my windshield... its getting worse with the hot sun too. The sealant that was there already is black and sticky. Please help 🙏 ❤
I hope you didn't listen to him. Permatex is a liquid used to repair a gasket sealed in an engine or a radiator and has nothing to do with fixing the exterior of a car or car molding. I suggest getting a small tube of 3 oz Natural silicon from Home Depot, Walmart, or a regular hardware store. If you need help, you can call me at 845-496-2500. If I don't answer, please leave a message, and I'll get back to you ASAP. When leaving a message, please also provide your cell phone number so I can help you further. Please let me know what type of Kia you have. If you can upload a photo that you can take with your cell and send it to my email address at rayalbrecht@auto-glass.com. Thank you!
Nice! Thank you for that tutorial.
No offense....duck tape wont damage the paint any more than slamming a metal can on the hood
The tape itself does not do the damage. It is removing the adhesive. That can cause damage. It definitely will hurt the clear coat. Also have the risk. That the adhesive is so strong. It will pull the molding. Right back off. So masking tape is your best option or painters tape.
Thank You. TY, TY. Just had molding blown loose and flapping in the wind. Saw other view, mention Clear Silicone "Waterproof"-? ( labeled for use in plumbing and bathrooms-?-)- Yes? " .
Actually the best silicone adhesive if you were to use such. Would be a non-latex based silicone. It is a stronger. Silicone where The latex-based Silicon has a rubber Constitution. You don't need waterproofing. Like you would for a bathroom tub. latex-based silicone Does it ahear better on plastic?
glad you told us about apply heat to cracked mirror to remove it! thank you I will be replacing my 150Ford truck’s side cracked mirror!

hmm do you think silicone is better than gasket maker? I have an upper corner of weather stripping coming up and I figure a glob of gasket maker and then tape the weather stripping to hold it down and let it sit for a day or two... idk tho.. is that stupid?
What is Gasket maker?
@@raytheglass Believe hes referring to permatex rtv gasket maker.
I have a 2013 Toyota Prius and went through a carwash and ripped my top windshield molding. I ripped part of it off because it was flapping, but on the left and right side, I can't get the molding off because I think it's held on by clips. Is there a way to get that off without removing the windshield?
Look under the molding that's loose. Look and see if there is a clip underneath the molding. If there is, take the silicone glue over the clip and then tape the molding down. However toyota does sell the moulden clips. If you have a plastic stick, you can remove the molding from the other clips. Now I never showed how to get those moldings back on but you basically would use the bottom part of your hand and snap it in from left to right. Make sure you hit just a molding.Although it would be difficult to break the windshield. But the easy part would just be to glue the molding down from the inside of the pinch weld.
I have a 1999 Chrysler Town & Country Limited. It has a self dimming drivers mirror that has started leaking out the fluid. As such, it’s gone opaque. I did what most guys do. I ordered a cheap new mirror from RockAuto (or your typical auto parts store). Then I happened upon Ray’s videos and parts website. Man am I lucky I did that. I was about to cause myself a whole bunch of headaches and extra work. Thank god I watched his videos and gave him a call. He walked me through the process and sold me the correct mirror - which for my application is a fit over style. Not a replacement version. I was ready to pry my old mirror off. Likely I would have ruined the heating element in the process. And then put on a crappy made in Mexico mirror that would likely blind me. Ray got me the correct mirror. And gave me the right advice on how to install it - saving me a ton of time headaches and costs. That inexpensive mirror would have cost me more in the short run in pain and aggravation. I paid a few extra dollars to Internet Glass, but well worth it to get the right product and the wisdom to install it. I believe in the adage “you get what you pay for”. Ray was helpful and followed up our discussion with emails, links to additions install videos and friendly advice. Nice to see that this kind of service still exists in America. And here is the best part. Ray is super knowledgeable. Clearly he has been in the industry for several decades. If you got a glass problem, likely he has the knowledge to help you through it. Watch his videos. Call him for advice. Most likely importantly. Order his products. That’s the value of his business versus a chain store. As a final note on my install. I compared the mirror I got on Rockauto to to the mirror I got from Ray. It was the wrong mirror and would not have worked. Ray knew that simply by my giving him the part number. This is wisdom you don’t often see in business and it’s worth every penny.

Just went to the Homedepot and bought clear silicone that can dry in 30 minutes with the gun, tape and window cleaner. Was on my way to church and decided to do this ar the Homedepot parking lot. Did it myself and not one guy came to the rescue except for this awsome video. Cleaned it with baby wipes and did it. Waiting to see:)
When are you releasing another die hard movie?
One producer said get the hell out to Hollywood. Now we need you badly. Lol. I was actually asked. LOL
😁😁😁😁
how about the bottom part of the windshield? there's some opening left after replacing. When I remove it slightly I see the wiper motor there? If the water gets in there doesn't it damage the motor. The glass is intact otherwise
That whole area Needs no protection from water. I do not know what car you have.So I do not know how that mogan goes back on.
Hello, would it be the same for the top mold? I greatly appreciate your help. God bless!
Yes.

Hi Ray....awesome video Dan signing in!
BTO thanks for the great tunes.
Glad you like them!
Like the video, but the newer mirror which can be adjusted from the 8nside id a diffent story. Maybecwhen you find time, you'll make a video of doing them.
All mirrors are glued and removed the same way either they are Is manual or automatic. Except for the new self dimming mirrors. Never try to remove one of those.Look at my other videos and you'll see why
I just used the information here to take a mirror (only) out of a Toyota Corolla passenger side mirror "assembly", remove the broken passenger side mirror from my 2012 Scion XB, and install the identical Corolla mirror. Fits perfectly and this video made it happen better and FASTER! Thanks
I replaced a mirror before in a corolla 2015. no heat - nothing. It just snapped in. Not sure why did you have to use heat on a corolla? Thought this maybe for a Honda.
Hey great information on the different grades of wood stove glass...but come on let's mention the overseas country and those big box stores we get the lower grade glass LOL
The loud music intro is obnoxious but the video instruction was great.
This is NOT what you do. NEVER USE SILICONE EVEN IN A PINTCH. It is obvious the molding is not sitting back in correctly. owner should have called who installed the windshield to redo it. but seriously, SILICONE is extremely hard to get off things. Now when this guy needs a new windshield it will either not be safely installed or the installer will simply not touch the car. (if he is smart)
The car was 10-odd years old, and the second owner did not know where it was installed. Also, the windshield was installed on the pinchweld and the molding is on the body side of the pinchweld. You are correct though. If that windshield was ever replaced later, the installer would need to scrape off that silicone. What is really damaging would be the use of airborne contamination. As I have said previously, I used silicone because if accessible for the consumer. Ever primerless Urethane does NOT bond to RUBBER, in which you need to use another special primer. So yes. Silicone worked.
No Lol
Could you ever Imagine....lol
got the same fixture,…. my lens has spring suspension and is held with , full-size snap ring
Very helpful, thanks. Yep, flapping in the wind on the freeway today - fun! I was going to try 3M double-sided "super strength" molding tape, then saw your video. Just to confirm: the silicone method will still work if I don't use heat on the rubber strip first? - and then I should place masking tape over it so it'll 'set' for several hours after I've re-affixed it? By the way, my rubber strip isn't as sturdy/hard as the one on your video. Thanks in advance for your answers, much appreciated!
As we speak since safelite came and put a windscreen on my car I have water coming into my car
Well, being I was the Eastern Regional VP for Penn Auto Glass which Safelite bought in the 70 the average installer years of experience is about 2.6 years sometimes can cause trouble. They do however have a lifetime warranty. I can't say anymore being they are Goliath, and Im just David. So it should be covered. So call them at 888-238-4527 which is their national customer service number. When you call. Make sure you get a reference number of the call from the operator. Also, Bring the car to their shop for the fix, being the 2850 locations they boldly state, are not retail locations but installer's home addresses. If you have a problem, call us at 845-496-2500. I would love to conference the call with you.
Thankyou so much for a clear concise easy to understand video. I cracked the glass on my new 2022 dodge charger and the had absolutely no replacement with the glass amd the fram. I either had to spend hundreds to replace the entire mirror housing whole 9 yards or just the glass and at the time even that was difficult to find. So thankyou
I had a 10' by 12" factory pellet stove window shatter at "candle" temps. The stove had run in the same level location for 3 years, some times at constant high heat, but this was an initial startup for the season and the stove (a tiny 35,000 btu unit) was only simmering on it's lowest (idle) temp for about 2 hours when we heard a giant pop and I saw the glass spider. It's a narrow bur DEEP stove and the burn-pot is actually set about 6 inches back from the door in this unit. The pot is a basket style that directs the flame straight up and nowhere near the door. Nothing was within 10 feet of the stove, and heat was obviously not the issue as I could even touch the cracked glass (stove still burning) with my hand. Any ideas, sir?
Odd. If it worked for 3 years and then a crack developed I would say that maybe the high-temperature Fiberglass Gasket Failed and the glass was hitting metal on the inside. Or if the heat at one point exceeded 1500 deg then that could be the cause. I am assuming the glass was never replaced. You know there is a thing insurance Companies use which is damaged due to "An act of God". Call me at 845-496-2500 as I would love to speak to you on this.
Is there any adhesive that can be used to glue that glass to an old wood stove to make a site glass for the flame? I know RTV/Silicone maxes out at 600f
You could use a high-heat sealant similar to Concrete. In Home Depot it is called Woodstove Sealant. I have a sand-type sealant. I do tell people to buy that if say a crack developed the glass, and to use it temporarily so the air does not affect the burn or incoming smoke before they get the new glass.
2003 Toyota matrix, is the seal around the windshield the type that wraps around the edge of the glass? It's been working it's way out for a while, had it rtv'd back down in a couple of spots, but now I have a leak inside the driver side, top of the pillar and the middle of the molding. Glass guy wanted $500 to replace the windshield, I balked at that, then he insisted the moonroof drains were clogged. I cleared those yesterday and still got two inches of water in the driver floorboard. I'm pretty sure it's the windshield seal. Is this the kind of seal I can replace myself? (Preferably before winter, lol)
Without seeing the car, I would say if it just started to leak but did not leak after the replacement then you have what I call Windshield Cancer when the windshield was installed the Glass Tech did not prime the scratches and now RUST has compromised the seal of the windshield. Yes, it is an old Car. The other thing that can cause a leak in the corner is the Drip Rails along the top side of the car could be rusted or cracked where water is getting into the car via the inside pillar molding. I would use clear silicone using my finger to embed the sealant. If you let me know your location I can set you up with a glass shop that will glue the corner from the inside using a primerless urethane. That method however is a last resort in your case. Call me at 845-496-2500 so we can talk about this.
This video is gold man. Nice work, and thanks for the tips
Thank you for taking time to make this Video! My Saturn Ion Redline is doing this exact separation at the top left Driver's Side Windshield so tx to you Brother I will fix it myself! You Rock!
Glad it helped.
you been doing for x years, yet no protective gloves, no masking tape to protect edges of the mirror housing/frame when removing mirror ---am I wrong or right ?
Yes. Everyone should wears gloves, and eye wear. No need for tape when removing. As I was saying to use the heat at the middle of the mirror so the frame lip would not melt. The heat will spread through the glass. Patience is the Key for that to happen.
You’re a fucking idiot. That’s a Fw2494 and requires no clips. You’re an idiot, those been like that since new. Shut your trailer park ass Up
one project after another- thankful for your videos!
Safety glasses also might be a good idea
Do you have a video showing how to fix the bottom seal?
The rubber sealant thingy around my cars windshield is flaking, half of it is gone, there is no leak yet. Can you make a video on this issue, please.
